Further to its prior focus on Fintech & Digitalisation, ICMA has been taking a systematic approach to the topic of (Primary) Market Innovation involving member firm participants from across the (primary) debt capital market ecosystem to gauge their views, to pinpoint common themes and to look to identify ways in which ICMA can support and drive further engagement across the industry to facilitate efficiency improvements and a coordinated drive towards innovation.
