The International Capital Market Association (ICMA) and the International Securities Lending Association (ISLA) will be holding a workshop on the Global Master Repurchase Agreement (GMRA) and the Global Master Securities Lending Agreement (GMSLA).

These two separate master agreements are the essential legal underpinnings for the repo and securities lending markets respectively. The three-day workshop will include a detailed review of both legal agreements and their application. The workshop will also include coverage of the soon to be published GMRA 2011. In addition to case studies, the operational and basic legal characteristics of the repo and securities lending markets will also be discussed.

The workshop will be delivered by Richard Comotto, the author of ICMA's Repo Survey, together with legal and documentation professionals and representatives from ICMA, ISLA and Freshfields.

The Global Master Agreements for Repo and Securities Lending Workshop is an accredited course under the Solicitors Regulation Authority (formerly The Law Society's) CPD Scheme. Solicitors may claim 18 hours CPD credit for their attendance on the whole course.

The workshop will be held in London from 18-20 April
