In the ICMA Quarterly Report for the Third Quarter, the Foreword by Bertrand de Mazières is on the EIB's contribution to capital markets. 

 

The Quarterly Assessment is on the implications for capital markets from the European elections. ICMA reviews new regulatory developments at global and EU level in response to the crisis; and ICMA considers the impact of new regulations on market practice in the short-term markets (including ECP and repo), the primary markets, the secondary markets, asset management and the market infrastructure. 

 

There are also particular features on the ICMA Sovereign Bond Consultation Paper Supplement, MiFID II Level 2, the CSD Regulation, the Green Bond Principles, an EU private placement market, macroprudential risk and ICMA in Asia-Pacific.

 

ICMA welcomes feedback and comment on the issues raised in the report. ICMA members are invited to join us for our quarterly briefing call to discuss aspects of ICMA’s work programme featured in this Quarterly Report. The call will take place at 12.00 London time/13.00 CEST on Tuesday, 15 July.
