Global and US regulatory environment: current priorities, challenges and next steps

Event Report

Mr. Kenneth E. Bentsen, Jr. – President & CEO, SIFMA & CEO, GFMA

Mr. David Strongin – Executive Director, GFMA

Global Financial Markets Association (GFMA) - Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA)

 

The global regulatory environment has changed significantly since the financial crisis and many of the regulations that are adopted by national regulators are drawn up in international fora and then transplanted into domestic legislation. But this regulatory environment is complicated: there can be conflicting priorities between different countries and indeed (not least within the US) between regulators within the same country.

The advocacy work of trade associations has therefore played an important role in influencing these decisions. The Global Financial Markets Association (GFMA) which is an umbrella organisation for trade associations in the US, Europe and Asia (SIFMA, AFME and ASIFMA respectively) has played an important role.

Kenneth E. Bentsen is CEO of GFMA and SIFMA and David Strongin (Executive Director of GFMA) will give a presentation including giving views on the following:

Global regulations: current priorities for regulators and institutions and challenges

The US regulatory environment, US regulators’ priorities and views on the possible regulatory outcomes as a result of the 2016 Presidential election.

Thoughts on the next steps for global (including Asian) regulators and what are likely to be their working practices and priorities.
