Thinking Derivatively - April 2020 Issue

 

  APRIL 2020 NEWSLETTER

Dear Reader,

From all of us at Numerix, we hope you and your loved ones are staying safe and well. The world is fighting a very serious health pandemic, and so at the same time a parallel war is being fought: an economic pandemic. Financial institutions are dealing with extreme risk shocks and this has ushered in heightened levels of uncertainty for the capital markets.

But there is one major risk event that is measurable, has known drivers, and has a known end: the cessation of LIBOR. That’s why this April edition is dedicated to examining key issues and addressing outstanding questions and solutions related to the LIBOR transition.

With my warmest wishes for your continued wellness,

Steven R. O’Hanlon
Chief Executive Officer and President
