- the use of repo with bonds, interest rate swaps and bond futures
- credit and emerging market repos
- tri-party repo: mechanics, applications and interoperability
- cleared repo and client-clearing
- regulation of repo
- ESG and repo
This workshop was delivered via video conferencing. Live sessions were delivered in four 3.5-4 hour sessions over the course of two weeks. Delegates will be sent resources before the live sessions.
