Show Notes

In this Episode of Ahead of the Curve, John Pucciarelli – Head of Industry & Regulatory Strategy at AcadiaSoft is joined by guest speaker Ann Battle, Head of Benchmark Reform at ISDA (International Swaps & Derivatives Association). Ann provides us with her expert insight into why we are transitioning from IBOR benchmarks towards RFRs (Risk Free Rates). This in-depth analysis is both educational and informative as John and Ann share the shortcomings of existing interest rate benchmarks and the benefits of moving towards a more robust and viable system that is not based on IBOR style panel bank rate submissions.
