Emerging markets

Securities lending and borrowing (SLB) has become an increasingly important element in emerging markets, especially those seeking to boost liquidity and attract international investors. Emerging markets could have an advantage over developing economies where best practices could be taken up and more easily embedded from the get-go if these SLB programmes are being developed only now.

Global PSSL has been very active in relation to emerging markets as evidenced by its work on a forward-looking standard.
