The first live industry gathering to be held since the RMA / PASLA Asian 麻豆传媒 Lending Conference 2020 was cancelled is to happen this year.
The 38th Annual RMA 麻豆传媒 Finance and Collateral Management Conference, originally planned for 11-14 October, is to be rescheduled for 18-21 October.
This event is being moved to a new venue, the JW Marriott Miami Turnberry Resort & Spa.
A 50-year old property, Turnberry was at the core of Don Soffer's vision of present-day Aventura, a city that was planned out on a cocktail napkin by Don himself. The resort is still owned and managed by the Soffer family.
鈥淲e have been looking forward to the day when we can finally meet in person with our industry peers and friends since the pandemic took hold,鈥� said Fran Garritt, RMA鈥檚 director of securities lending, global markets risk and credit risk. 鈥淭his conference is always a special gathering, but it will be even more so this year as we put a difficult year behind us and discuss the challenges and opportunities to come.鈥�
鈥淥f course, we will conduct the conference with the utmost concern for the safety of our attendees,鈥� Garritt said. 鈥淲orking closely with JW Marriott, we will continue to monitor and adhere to the latest CDC guidelines.鈥�
The conference co-chairs will be Marney McCabe, Brown Brothers Harriman鈥檚 co-head of global securities lending, and Casey Spezzano, head of customer sales and trading, US, NatWest Markets.
McCabe and Spezzano will be working with the RMA 麻豆传媒 Lending Council industry leaders to create a programme that addresses critical issues impacting the industry and to help institutions navigate the year ahead.
In 2020, the industry鈥檚 number one conference was converted into the RMA 麻豆传媒 Finance & Collateral Management Virtual Summit which took place on 13-14 October. Participants enjoyed two days of online panels with top securities lending professionals.
This conference included an update from the RMA's securities lending council, a look at ESG, cash and the changing landscape of collateral, and a focus on diversity and inclusion in the industry.
This was followed on the second day by three online panels covering the move from LIBOR to SOFR, risk and reward for beneficial owners, and a global industry leaders panel.
