The ICMA Secondary Market Practices Committee is an open forum for sell-side and buy-side member firms active in the European investment grade corporate bond secondary market. Through open dialogue and engagement, as well as through its subsidiary working groups and work-streams, it seeks to be the representative body of the European corporate bond secondary market: addressing practical issues directly relevant to market practitioners; standardising market best practice; disseminating relevant market information; and promoting the best interests of an efficient and liquid market.
Any member firms active in the European IG corporate bond secondary market should contact
Andy Hill, secretary to the SMPC, to learn more about its objectives, work-streams, and output, as well as to participate in future meetings.
Please find minutes from the precious SMPC meetings below.
The minutes from the meeting held on 2 May 2017, featuring a discussion with the FCA on critical issues related to MiFID II/R and the fixed income markets, will be published here in due course. The date and location of the next meeting of the SMPC (likely to be early September) will also be published here soon. In the meantime, anybody interested in the various SMPC work-streams and Working Groups should contact
Andy Hill or
Vanessa Verdier.
