SECURITIES FINANCE PRACTICE SPANS ATLANTIC
Rule Financial has been in attendance at two major international Securities Finance conferences during June, one in Europe, one in the USA.
First, at the 19th ISLA (International Securities Lending Association) conference in Berlin. David Little, Head of Securities Finance joined Alec Nelson, Iain Futcher, Jonathan Adams and Julia Iredale at the Adlon Kempinski hotel where the keynote speaker was Tony Blair's notorious former spin doctor and adviser Alastair Campbell (l.)
Also in Berlin for the conference were 400 delegates from banks, broker dealers, asset managers pension funds, hedge funds and financial policymakers, making it the most important event of its kind in Europe.
The following week David Little flew to Boston to join Rule's New York team, including Matt Doran, Ale Malo and Ami Grewal, to participate in the second annual East Coast Beneficial Owners Securities Lending Summit. Rule Financial was a "Bronze Sponsor" of the summit along with some of our most distinguished clients and the securities lending publication GSL.
David Little (r.) is in no doubt at the value of these events to Rule's
Marketing initiative:
"It's vital we use the international stage to spread the message that Rule is now the largest Securities Finance consultancy in London and has the experience and expertise to make a real difference." he commented. "We intend to consolidate our success on a global scale."
David was a panellist at a Risk Management discussion scheduled for the first afternoon of the IMN event at the Seaport Hotel, Boston, MA on Monday 28th June.
