NCMF and ICMA Joint Seminar on Weathering the Financial Storm in Stockholm, 24 January 2012

Agenda

NCMF and ICMA presented the fourth joint annual conference on developments in the Nordic and international capital markets.

 

At the end of another eventful year in financial markets, experts from financial institutions and authorities reviewed the overall macroeconomic and financial outlook for 2012, including the likely impact of the many regulatory changes currently under way on the Nordic and international capital markets. Expert sessions assessed: the macroeconomic risk outlook for the Nordic region and Europe; the future of government and state sponsored financing in the new environment and the continuing challenges for bank funding. The regulatory panel considered the changes to Capital Requirements, CCP clearing and MiFID/MIFIR which will affect short selling, market infrastructure and CSD operations.
