About the webinar:
With LIBOR cessation on track for a December 2021 end, the Asian markets have been lagging behind transition progress made in the US and EU. As the transition to risk-free rates is moving slower within Asia jurisdictions, this is causing uncertainties in financial institutions, especially with the unprecedented event of COVID-19.
This webinar will examine how financial institutions can be forward looking and robustly advancing towards the adoption of new alternative rates in Asia.
