Following the successful delivery of the ISLA Connects Educational Briefings in London this year, we are delighted to announce that we will be holding a similar event on securities finance market data ahead of our annual regional briefing in Frankfurt on 4 December.

Taking place during the morning between 08:30-10:30, the ISLA Connects & State Street Educational Briefing is open to new entrants to the industry or in the early stages in their career (analyst/associate level), as well as firms looking to engage in securities lending.

Experts from S&P Global Market Intelligence and State Street will provide participants with an overview of securities lending data, what the data for 2024 tells us about how the market has performed this year, and future trends for 2025 and beyond. Attendees will also hear about the world of alternative data and how this impacts securities lending returns.

Refreshments will be provided as well as the opportunity to network with industry peers.

ISLA Connects aims to provide a forum for ISLA member firm representatives to network and connect in a structured environment, have access to educational opportunities, and enable ISLA to reach market participants who may not have the opportunity to interact with us via our Working Groups or Annual Conferences.
