August 15, 2019 - On behalf of the entire LSTA team, we are proud to share with you the Summer 2019 edition of Loans Magazine.

This edition provides members with valuable content on the latest developments in the syndicated loan market.  It begins with our Executive Director, Lee Shaiman’s letter to membership and a feature article from David Chmiel of Global Torchlight Limited which explores “Current Geopolitical Trends Impacting the Loan Market”.  We continue with a series of articles on the many aspects of the LIBOR/SOFR transition, an analysis of the secondary loan market, the importance of early assignment of CUSIP identifiers and a look at the exciting and growing sustainable finance sector.  Finally, we take on some serious questions regarding Loans as Securities, Japanese Risk Retention and KYC.
