Collateral in the crosswinds: How the buyside is navigating repo and securities lending volatility
Market volatility, evolving regulation, shifting liquidity conditions and changing collateral requirements are reshaping the way buyside firms access funding and source securities. As repo and securities lending markets become increasingly strategic, asset managers, insurers and pension funds are reassessing how they optimise collateral, manage liquidity and enhance market access.
This panel brings together leading buyside and market participants to discuss how they are responding to today's market dynamics, the growing role of collateral management and the opportunities and challenges arising from changes in repo and securities lending markets
