ISLA / RMA Conference - Which subject interests you most?

I am getting ready to go to the conference and was just reviewing the subject matter one more time. I will be covering the event for Global Custodian Magazine and have been considering which session carries the best potential for stories. I'm always interested in what you think, so I have listed below the the titles of the different panel sessions. Which one interests you the most?

Which ISLA/RMA conference subject are you most interested in?(opinion)

If you have any questions or comments you want raised at the event, let me know and I may get a chance to ask them on your behalf. Drop me an email at roy@stocklendingtoday.com

Regulatory Corner
Last Friday was a busy day for regulatory reports. IOSCO produced its Final Report on the Regulation of Short Selling. I haven't had a chance to do anything other than skim it so far. More in the coming days.

Friday was also the deadline for public comments to the SEC for Short Sale price tests and circuit breakers. Over 5,000 submissions were made by interested parties. My feeling is that the most interesting comments weren't made public .... How You Doin?

Lars' experience is by no means novel in the industry, but his perspective most certainly is."
