On October 24th, 2017, GFM’s Tariq Dennison presented an intensive 1-day repo workshop to over 60 professional bond traders in Manila, Philippines, with the goal of developing an active and liquid repo market for local Philippine peso bonds. “Repo” is short for “sale and repurchase agreement”, and is the main way banks and funds finance about US$15,000,000,000,000 (that’s 15 trillion) of global bond markets. Tariq provides a short introduction to repos in the full 3-day bonds and fixed income workshop he delivers at CFA Singapore, as well as at University business schools.
Tariq was also honored to be introduced by Philippine national treasurer Rosalia De Leon.
