Investment Advisors Council Objectives

The Investment Advisors Council has proposed the following objectives for the Global PSSL:

• To build trust and transparency throughout the securities finance value chain.
• To review and assess the role of Investment Advisors in lending securities on behalf of their clients, in order to seek more efficient and effective execution, in alignment with the Global Principles.
• To explore the role of custodians in providing transparent and equitable securities lending for their clients, and to issue guidance/recommendations towards improving and standardizing the process.
• To create a better understanding of the Securities Lending Market by the investing public.

The Global PSSL Secretariat will work with the Investment Advisors Council to help deliver on these objectives. Global PSSL will also encourage other councils to work towards these objectives via our new Active Briefing Culture.
