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).
