The promise and practicalities of today’s securities lending

Bureaucratic red tape, political upheavals, and economic threats have all colluded in recent years to hamper the progress of the EU's Capital Markets Union (CMU). Proposals have been made to get the CMU back on track, with securities lending and borrowing being an often cited solution.

This session explores whether securities lending is underutilised in the EU, the potential it has, and how it can be encouraged.

Can’t add the session to “My schedule”? Your meetings page could reveal if the slot is blocked by a pending meeting invitation.

Adding a session to your personal schedule does not commit you to attend (except for the dinner or exclusive sessions where very clearly communicated). Conversely, it does not guarantee your seat, so come in good time where you suspect a full room.
