Overview
The ERCC was established in 1999 and is today firmly established as the main representative body for the cross-border repo and collateral market in Europe. It has also played a crucial role in the development of the repo market globally. The ERCC is a perfect example of how industry participants can come together and collaborate for the benefit of the overall market.
To commemorate its 25th year, an anniversary dinner will take place at Plaisterer’s Hall on April 25 to reflect on past and future challenges, to celebrate the progress made and the achievements of the ERCC but most of all to thank the numerous individuals who are and have been involved, who have contributed and continue to contribute to the ERCC’s success and the growth of the global repo markets.
Tables of ten, as well as half tables, are available for firms, who are active in the repo markets, to sponsor. To discuss sponsorship opportunities, please contact our Head of Business Development & Events Sponsorship, sanaa.clausse@icmagroup.org.

| 10:00 | Streamlining Contract Management: The Benefits of Using the CDM to Transition from Paper to Digital Contracts The legal industry is undergoing a transformative shift towards digitalization. The transition from hard copy to digital documentation offers numerous advantages, including more accessibility and enhanced negotiation, improved data security and privacy, and the potential to leverage advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. In this panel we will be demonstrating how to transform your paper-based documents into CDM formatted digital representations, allowing the legal terms that govern a trade to be attached to it, thus facilitating automation of lifecycle events.

| 11:15 | Standardised Eligible Collateral Schedules - Expansion & Implementation Collateral management is a data driven process, crossing multiple areas within firms and types of products. Using the CDMS’s standardised data for collateral representation, firms can streamline operational processes that result in improved counterparty risk management and collateral optimisation. CDM-Collateral working group members will showcase how they have contributed to the advancement, growth and development of the CDM and demonstrate the benefits that their firm or clients will realize. FIA-Tech will demo: Expanding eligible collateral representation to ETD and Cleared collateral schedules, reducing manual maintenance of CPPs’ collateral schedules.

We will discuss how to get started with the CDM, drawing on lessons from hackathons and integration projects, to lower implementation costs, avoid fragmentation and accelerate the development of new services. Moderator: Gabriel Callsen, Senior Director, FinTech & Digitalisation, ICMA

TradeHeader and REGnosys will highlight the updates made in the past year to expand DRR to these jurisdictions, with a demonstration from ingestion of transactions using CDM through to full regulatory reports and submission into ISO20022 format. The presentation will also demonstrate how the DRR’s functional logic can be transparently traced back to the collaborative interpretation work carried-out by the ISDA WG.

| 15:45 | Application of the CDM in Trading Over the last 18 months the ISLA CDM Trading Working Group have been enhancing the CDM to improve pre- and post- trade processes, contributing structures to the model that standardise the formats used by lenders and borrowers for their daily trading needs. In this panel, members of the working group will discuss the benefits of getting the trade “right at the start”, and how the standardisation of data and processes provided by the CDM can ultimately reduce costs and increase automation of manual tasks.
