Municipal Bank Loans and Direct Placements Seminar
October 25, 2016 | 12:30 PM – 6:00 PM | SIFMA Conference Center, NYC
Join SIFMA for a discussion on the legal, regulatory, accounting and compliance uncertainties arising from the increase in state and local governments turning to banks as a source of debt finance over traditional public market debt offerings.
This half day program includes views from the regulators and a deep dive into bank loan and direct placement transactions, covering:
- What is the effect of the convergence on the public and private debt markets?
- Should accounting treatment of a debt instrument determine how it is treated for regulatory purposes?
- What are the regulatory implications of treating a debt instrument as a loan or security?
- What can we expect from regulators on these questions in the future?
