CESR Publishes The Report On The Second Wholesale Day

Following the first meeting that took place in February 2006, CESR organised another “Wholesale Day” that took place in CESR’s offices in Paris on 17 March 2008. CESR’s Chairman, Mr Eddy Wymeersch, chaired the meeting. A wide range of industry representatives, including EuroMTS, Bloomberg, DTCC London, Moody’s, other market participants identified by the relevant European associations and academics participated in the discussions. Also present was a representative of the Commission. The note published today highlights the main conclusions of the discussions.

The aim of this roundtable was to identify current major trends in the non-equity wholesale markets and their regulatory or supervisory implications (if any). The discussions will help CESR to shape its future work programme and to prioritise its future activities.
