A Guide to Best Practice in the European Repo Market

The ICMA have just published a guide to best practice in the European Repo Market.This important document was written by Richard Comotto, Senior Visiting Fellow at the ICMA Centre for the ICMA's European Repo Council. It represents the most comprehensive set of recommendations for trading and settlement, and codification of market conventions, in any repo market and is likely to provide a model to other markets. It will also be an essential aide to researchers, commentators and policy-makers.
