The RMA Securities Lending Conference is an annual industry-wide conference on Securities Lending, sponsored by and developed for securities lending and borrowing professionals. The business program reflects current and important issues facing our industry, beginning with the Latin American Markets Tutorial on October 12. During the tutorial, there will be discussions on the development of Brazil, Mexico, Chile and Colombia and how these markets affect the industry.

Panel discussions with lenders, agents, borrowers, consultants, and business leaders include global short selling restrictions, advantages and disadvantages for the current lending model in Brazil, the Impact of Dodd-Frank on securities lending, and the implications of tax, regulatory, and capital reforms on securities lending.

WilmerHale partner Dan Gallagher is a featured speaker at this event, and will be presenting with a panel on Oct. 14, entitled "The Impact of Dodd-Frank on Securities Lending."
