WEDNESDAY, 7 MARCH0900 – 0915Welcome to the ConferenceA welcome to the conference and an update on PASLA’s and RMA’s joint activities during the past year will be given by the conference co-chairs.

0915 – 0930Welcoming RemarksPresenter:

– Calvin Tai, Joint Chief Operating Officer, Managing Director & Head of Clearing, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited, Hong Kong

0930 – 1030Future of Securities Finance in China: Where Does That Leave Hong Kong?Hong Kong and China’s stock markets have had a collaborative relationship ever since China’s economic reforms of the 1980s. Many Chinese companies have since listed in Hong Kong with H-shares taking the stage back in 1993 with the listing of Tsingtao breweries. The securities markets trading links between Hong Kong and Mainland have become even more prominent since 2014 with the introduction of stock (Shanghai-Hong Kong and Shenzhen-Hong Kong) and Bond connect platforms and more recently with the proposed ETF connect between Hong Kong and the mainland. What does the future hold for both bourses and this convenient relationship? Will they continue to act in mutually beneficial ways or will one bourse finally reign supreme? Importantly, what do future outcomes mean for the development of the securities finance industry? Moderator:

– Christopher Antonelli, Global Co-Head of Prime Services, Nomura, Hong Kong

1030 – 1100Coffee Break with ExhibitorsCourtesy of: – ABN AMRO Clearing Bank – Eurex Clearing

– Euroclear – Goldman Sachs

1100 – 1145Keynote Address: Asia’s Macroeconomic Horizon: Where Are the Opportunities and Challenges?Mr. Neumann will present a strategic overview of the forces reshaping the global economy, contributing to the drag on advanced economies, and spurring growth among the emerging market economies. The central focus will be on Asia (especially China) where shifts to the traditional growth model demand changes to future investment themes. Also, as investment opportunities have accelerated capital flows into the emerging market economies, coping strategies will be required to manage new risks rising from a policy backlash in reaction to these inflows. Speaker:

– Frederic Neumann, Co-Head of Asian Economic Research, Managing Director, HSBC Limited

1145 – 1230APAC Developing Markets: What Is the Formula for a Successful Securities Lending Model? Participants from regional markets at various stages of development will discuss the ongoing expansion of their off-shore securities lending markets from their own perspectives, discussing elements that have been successful in contrast to those that have been a challenge in supporting the growth profile of the product. Panelists will debate various approaches to regulatory, tax and legal reform to draw out a discussion on best practices in aiding the further development of emerging markets in the Asia-Pacific region. Moderator:

– Ed Oliver, Managing Director, Product Development, eSecLending, London

BUSINESS PROGRAM

1400 – 1500Regional Fixed Income and Repo Trading: What Is the Opportunity? Panelists will discuss the growth and development of fixed income and repo trading across Asia-Pacific, debating the key players and drivers for this trend whilst identifying key opportunities for participants. The discussion will also focus on the development of these markets in Asia relative to other major trading hubs, outlining some of the key issues likely to challenge future growth. Moderator:

– Edward Bond, Executive Director, J.P. Morgan Investor Services, Singapore

1500 – 1600Risk and Reward in Securities Lending: Is It Really Worth It?In a world of compressed yields and lackluster investment returns, securities lending has been an obvious solution for asset owners seeking alternative avenues of alpha generation at relatively low risk. Despite continued momentum in beneficial owner program participation, there remains a perception that inherent risks within a program do not warrant the associated revenue potential. Are these perceptions justified? How has securities lending evolved since the global financial crises in helping participants manage risks appropriately? Are beneficial owners using a different lens today to assess the value proposition of securities lending? How have participants been successful in striking the right balance between risk, reward and governance? Moderator:

– Sean Greaves, Managing Director, Securities Finance-Asia, State Street Securities, Hong Kong

THURSDAY, 8 MARCH0900Chairpersons’ Remarks and Housekeeping

0900 – 0945Balance Sheet Management: The Future Path to OptimisationThe burden of regulatory capital remains an ongoing headwind for market participants to navigate, and firms continue to adapt their business models in pursuit of capital optimisation across the balance sheet. Panelists will debate how efficiently the market has evolved in this regard, addressing some of the key areas where changes and opportunities have and will continue to manifest. In addition, the panel will explore the next phase of capital efficient solutions such as CCPs, pledge collateral and smart bucketing, debating how these are progressing and in particular the extent to which agent lenders and beneficial owners need to optimize the use of varying conduits across their programs. Moderator:

– Natalie Wallder, Managing Director, BNY Mellon, Hong Kong

0945– 1030Keynote Address: Reimagining Financial Services for the Age of Machine Intelligence Why will the digital ecosystem of tomorrow be different from the one we use today? Every company in the future, whether it knows it or not, will be a software company and tomorrow’s leaders will make better decisions through their ability to integrate real-time data into their thinking. The greatest challenge for any company is keeping its current customers happy while anticipating the needs of its future consumer base.

Mr. Walsh will give insight to:1. Why machine learning, artificial intelligence, algorithms, robotics, and the

internet of things will disrupt and transform traditional markets.2. Future technology: why now is the time to re-imagine, re-design and re-invent

everything you and your firm does.3. How do you navigate the unique skills and potential challenges of your next

generation of employees?4. The secret of scaling up by designing work for small, empowered teams.5. Aligning IT and lines of business to deliver continuous innovation, creating

new products and services.Speaker:

– Mike Walsh, CEO, Tomorrow

1100 – 1200 The Disruptive Path of Fintech: Are Securities Finance Jobs at Risk? The industry continues to evolve at an increasing pace; panelists will debate the early effects of many agents and broker dealers investing millions of dollars into fintech solutions. The panel will explore becoming completely electronically connected, new proprietary trading platforms, creating artificial intelligence code, and how the shrinking need for ‘middlemen businesses’ has the potential to radically change staffing over the next five years. Every change makes the future for industry professionals more uncertain; what does the inevitable path forward look like for firms and professionals in the SBL industry? Finally, the panel will discuss methods for managers to embrace the change and remain valuable in re-engineering their own and their company’s future. Moderator:

– Stuart Jones, Hong Kong

1200 – 1300 Industry Leaders Debate: The Future of Securities Finance in the Asia/Pacific Region Senior business leaders’ summarize the conference and share their insight on how markets continue to evolve globally and in the complex Asia/Pacific region. Where do they see the business in five years’ time? Is technology going to revolutionize the industry? Panelists will also discuss recent market turbulence, such as Brexit, the erosion of the European securities lending markets, and emerging markets growth. Moderator:

– Roy Zimmerhansl, Global Head of Securities Lending, HSBC, Hong Kong
