The International Securities Lending Association (ISLA) has appointed Tony Holland as a regulatory and markets consultant.
He joins with more than three decades of experience in financial operations and securities lending, serving most recently as subject matter expert for the Securities Financing Transactions Regulation (SFTR) implementation at MUFG Securities EMEA.
Holland will be based in London and will focus on advancing standards and best practice for the securities lending industry, including market operating models, legal frameworks, digital and technology applications, and peer association standards. He will also evaluate the impact of recent and forthcoming financial regulation, including transition to a T+1 securities settlement cycle.
ISLA’s head of regulation and markets Adrian Dale comments: “[Holland’s] experience and depth of knowledge will be invaluable in many workstreams, but particularly with regard to our work on best practices and industry standards.”
“This area is a key focus for ISLA as our market addresses challenges associated with T1 and the inevitable digitisation in financial markets.”
