Remarks By US Under Secretary For Domestic Finance Nellie Liang At The 2022 Treasury Market Conference

INTRODUCTION

Good morning. It is great to be back in person at this conference. I would like to begin by thanking our colleagues in the Inter-Agency Working Group on Treasury Market Surveillance (IAWG) for co-hosting this conference. The collaboration between IAWG members has been tremendously important as we prioritize efforts to strengthen the resilience of the Treasury market.  The feedback from many of you to implement those priorities has also been very useful.  I believe that collectively, we have made significant progress on a path to a more resilient market.  We have introduced some significant changes and proposals, but there is still more to do.  Today I would like to begin by offering some brief observations about current Treasury market liquidity conditions.  After that, I will highlight the overall work of the IAWG, and then provide more detail about a key workstream led by Treasury to improve data quality and transparency in the Treasury market.
