Regulators are putting more focus on the urgency needed from market participants to ensure a smooth transition from LIBOR, which is likely to phase out by 2021. Join us for an overview of the latest from the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (ARRC), a group of private-market participants convened to help ensure a successful transition from LIBOR for floating rate notes, syndicated business loans, bilateral business loans and securitizations, the current guidance from ISDA relating to hedging arrangements, the SEC on disclosure and other updates on the status of the transition. In addition to an overview of these and other topics, Lillian Brown, Chalyse Robinson and Dino Wu of WilmerHale will provide practical tips and takeaways on how to:
