In this show, we discuss the arrival of ETFs in securities lending and the new product and service offerings to meet the demand for ETF lending at Clearstream. As ETFs with fixed income underlying assets are now available for securities lending and eligible for use in both fails and strategic securities lending products, we go in-depth with ETF expert Allan Stewart (Exec. Director of ETF Sales and Relationship Management) and Catherine Pring (Senior Product Manager for Securities Lending Products) on the mechanics, opportunities and roadmap for Clearstream’s new ETF lending programme. We also look at the broader ramifications of ETFs being held in central bank reserves and get out our GFF crystal ball to predict where this innovative new market will be this time next year.
