LIBOR Transition in Asia-Pacific: How to Stay Ahead of the Curve
 

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.

Discussion highlights include:

  • Development of local alternative risk-free rates in Asia Pacific (focus on Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Australia)
  • How to be prepared for possible fragmentation of the Asian markets
  • How to raise awareness amongst Asian buy-sides on the issues pertinent to the transition
  • The impact of COVID-19 on systems and operations for LIBOR transition
  • How to approach hedging and portfolio management with new alternative reference rates (ARRs)
  • The impact of new ARRs on curve instruments and curve modelling
     

Moderated by:

Blake Evans-Pritchard, Hong Kong bureau chief, Risk.net
