In the midst of volatile trading conditions, lending securities in your portfolio can provide a stable source of income, with the loan fully secured by liquid collateral and potentially further protected by borrower default indemnification.

In this article, BNY Mellon’s Agency Securities Finance team explain some of the basics of securities lending and detail how lending can deliver meaningful performance enhancement to your portfolio, even in the face of market volatility.

Demand Dynamics: An Outlook for Beneficial Owners, Alternative Investment Managers & Banks

 

Set against a backdrop of recent volatility, short-selling bans and changing trading strategies, what might the demand landscape look like for the rest of the year, and into 2021? What will this mean for prime brokers, agent lenders and ultimately beneficial owners?

 

ESG & Securities Finance for Institutional Investors

 

To open, there will be two brief presentations on the broader regulatory and policy aims and objectives of the European Commission, amongst others, followed by an update from the ISLA Council for Sustainable Finance (ICSF), that was launched at the start of 2020. This will be followed directly by a panel of industry protagonists, who will consider how our markets have to respond to these changing sentiments and the crucial role that securities lending can play in developing these new investment norms.

Data, Digitalisation & the Common Domain Model

 

ISLA have highlighted common data representations as a priority whilst firms continue to grapple with SFTR.

 
We may be entering a difficult period for profitability. Will the industry have the resources to continue the drive towards a digitalised future, or are the potential efficiencies more of a necessity than ever?  What are the latest developments for documentation? What are the next steps in post-trade efficiency?

COVID-19 & Chain Reactions: The Transmission of Effects Across Markets & Institutions

 

 

What effects were transmitted through the web of agent lenders, market makers, exchanges, MMFs? What were the connections between repo, SBL, TRS, HQLA, and even ETF liquidity?


What was expected, unexpected, and counter-intuitive? What have been the outside amplifiers or influences on the ecosystem?  And based on lessons learned what changes can be expected from business, operations and technology perspective?

ISF Buyside Repo Forum: Reg and Tech trends


The Securities Financing Transactions Regulation for phase one entities has led to a lot of confusion, hurdles for companies to overcome and unanswered questions. With impending regulatory regimes such as CSDR looking to shake the securities finance market, we discuss whether firms are prepared to meet their regulatory obligations and how technology can be used to benefit market participants.

ISF-ISLA: Capital Markets Union & Liquidity

 

This panel debates the key challenges that Europe faces when thinking about the development of a fully fledged market-based economic model, and how that thinking may be changing now that it is increasingly clear that the UK is likely to pursue a strategy of regulatory divergence in the medium term.

ISF-ISLA: Industry Leaders: Perspectives & Outlook in an Exceptional Year

 

To begin the week and set the tone, we ask senior figures from across the securities finance to share their perspectives, outlook, and experiences so far during this exceptional year. 

The New Regulatory Agenda: What Might Delays Mean for Buy & Sell Side Firms?

 

Recent market volatility has raised a number of questions regarding the impact of coming regulations and the effect that could have on the markets post-implementation.


Does the regulatory calendar still look possible or is it now too congested for practical implementation? What guidance have regulators given for further delays or how they will deal with the backlog? What would a CSDR-compliant market have looked like in a volatile first half of 2020? How do we expect the recent announcements by the UK government around medium-term regulatory divergence from the EU 27 to change our thinking?
