ICMA announces formation of UK & Americas regional committee
19 May 2025 ICMA is pleased to announce the formation of a regional committee for the United Kingdom & Americas and the appointment of two Vice-Chairs to support the region’s long-standing Chair. ICMA’s UK & Americas region represents the Associations’ largest and most diverse membership, which includes 201 institutions.
ICMA’s regional committee serves as a vital link with the membership, providing an additional layer of input from the numerous ICMA market practice and regulatory policy committees and working groups, and acting as a sounding board on how the association can better serve its membership and the wider market.
Shrey Kohli, Head of Debt Capital Markets & Issuer Services for the London Stock Exchange plc, and Ruth Burrell, Head of Legal, Capital Markets & Corporate Advisory at Standard Advisory London Ltd. have been appointed as Vice-Chairs who will support the Chair, Tim Skeet, Chief Institutional Relationship Officer for the Bank of China Ltd, London branch. Tim is also Deputy-Chair of the Committee of Regional Representatives, the committee comprised of all the Chairs of the various ICMA regions.
Tim Skeet commented, "Regional committees are such an important part of ICMA’s work in the capital markets, providing valuable expertise at the local level, which can be leveraged across international forums, working groups and advisory structures. I look forward to working with the Vice-Chairs and the rest of the committee to represent the expanding and increasingly diverse UK membership, and in particular those members not already well represented across the many working groups of the Association.”
