Overview
The ERCC’s bi-annual General Meetings provide a good opportunity for anyone with an interest in the European Repo Market to catch up on the latest market developments and related ERCC initiatives.
The spring AGM was held once again in a virtual format. The compact two-hour event included a mix of keynote speeches and panel discussions. As part of the agenda, speakers took a closer look at the particular challenges that the buy-side is facing in relation to repo. Another key topic discussed was the increasing importance of digitisation in the repo market, focusing on ICMA’s two flagship projects in this space: ICMA’s Common Domain Model for repo and bonds as well as the GMRA Clause Library and Taxonomy project which ICMA is developing.
