Looking at a Goldilocks scenario for corporate earnings? Mukul Kochhar, Head - Institutional Equities, Investec India says "Growth will be structurally higher by a percent, percent-and-a-half and one factor is the current account surplus which should get us into a more stable economic growth cycle. I feel that the private #capex cycle is going to be very strong and going to focus a little bit on manufacturing."

Credit Derivatives Determinations Committees: independent review and market consultation. ISDA has published an independent review on the structure and governance of the Credit Derivatives Determinations Committees (DCs) and launched a market-wide consultation on its recommendations. The recommendations were made by Linklaters under the leadership of Partner Simon Firth following an independent review commissioned by ISDA at the end of last year. The report makes several recommendations on possible changes that could be made to improve the structure of the DCs. Recommendations Main recommendations of the independent review include appointing independent members of the DCs, permitting DC members to refer complex questions to an independent panel by a simple majority vote, establishing a separate governance body to overview the operation of the DCs and requiring the DCs to provide adequate reasons for all material decisions. Market-wide consultation These recommendations are now available on the ISDA website for public consultation, with Boston Consulting Group (BCG) being appointed to oversee the consultation process until July 26, 2024. The proposals for consultation include sections on: 👉 Conflicts of interests 👉 DC composition 👉 Governance 👉 Representation and transparency 👉 Funding Following the results of the consultation, ISDA will work with members to propose specific changes to implement any of the measures that receive broad public support. ISDA will then recommend these solutions to the DCs, which are solely responsible for agreeing and implementing any changes. We will be contributing to the market consultation by sharing insights based on the rules and mechanisms natively encoded in Hexaven’s decentralized default management system. Particularly, we welcome the consultation on the conflicts of interests, in a context where regulators’ concerns and potential breach of required standards could disrupt market confidence in the credit derivative markets. https://lnkd.in/e5AJYRj7 #creditderivatives #cds #digitalcds #cryptodefaults #cryptoriskmanagement #cryptotrading #cryptocurrencies #cryptorisks #cryptohedgefunds #defi #tradfi
