LIBA and SIFMA Europe form new European association

05 May 2009

As market and regulatory developments increasingly take place on an international stage, a global-facing organisation is the optimum structure to best serve members’ interests, both associations state.

The London Investment Banking Association and SIFMA Europe announced the joining of their London-based operations into a single European organisation.

 

LIBA’s Director General Jonathan Taylor will lead the new association. As market and regulatory developments increasingly take place on an international stage, a global-facing organisation is the optimum structure to serve best members’ interests, both associations state.

 

The new European entity will be linked with a new body, the Global Financial Markets Association (“GFMA”), which will address global strategy. Tim Ryan, CEO of SIFMA US, will be the CEO of the GFMA.
