The aim of the event is to hold a general exchange on the recently strengthened focus, in the EU and globally, on the functioning of short-term debt markets (commercial paper and certificates of deposit). This discussion will take place against the background of the objectives on the capital markets union (CMU), EU competitiveness and preservation of financial stability. It will bring together market participants across the entire spectrum: issuers, investors, broker-dealers, as well as platforms and post‑trade infrastructure operators.
This event is intended to help the Commission gather evidence and insight into the functioning of short-term debt markets, identify potential avenues for improvement, and understand the role policymakers can play in addressing shortcomings.
