Regulation Seminar:

Global Regulatory Trends for our Metals Market: In our new post referendum world, we need to look beyond the European angles of regulatory focus that impact the world of metal trading. Whilst still keeping a close eye on what the likes of MIFID, EMIR, CRD and MAR mean for our world we also have to be cognisant of what the other jurisdictions are focusing their attentions on. What does the original G20 shopping list of reform measures look like 7 years on and what can we expect going forward?
