Shadow-Boxing in 2017: An Update on Shadow Banking Reform

The Financial Stability Board has been spearheading a review of “shadow banking” entities and activities since the onset of the financial crisis. Pursuant to the FSB’s work, many regulatory reforms have been introduced at both the national and international level in a wide-range of different areas.

Issues to be covered by Peter J. Green and Jeremy C. Jennings-Mares of Morrison & Foerster LLP during the presentation include:

Current aspects of shadow banking giving most concern to the G20
Money market fund regulation and recent MMF Regulation finalized by the European Union
Repos and effect of recent reforms
