The second quarter of 2011 was very active as the U.S. government continued to struggle with the debt ceiling and the economic crisis in Europe came to a head. In our latest issue we take a look at how recent events and market conditions are affecting the securities lending environment.

In our regional focus we highlight the Australian cash market and discuss some of the challenges the region has seen in the second quarter of 2011.

Next our regulatory focus offers insights into the recent legislation passed in Washington and in Europe. We also outline our predictions for the effects new legislation will have on the securities lending market in the coming months.

Finally our desk updates provide a full view of the second quarter events for equities, fixed income and the investment desk. With each update we also provide an outlook with our predictions for the next quarter.

We hope you enjoy the content in the following pages and we encourage any feedback you may have. As the financial landscape continues to evolve, we look forward to helping your business succeed. If you would like more information, please contact your relationship manager.
