The 47th ICMA Annual General Meeting and Conference

Sponsorship and ExhibitionOpportunities

Amsterdam June 3 to 5, 2015

BackgroundThe International Capital Market Association has been setting standards in the international capital market for almost five decades. The only trade association to grow up with the cross-border capital market, ICMA continues to promote the development of efficient markets through its recognised codes of best practice for international fixed income and related instruments. ICMA has more than 461 member firms in 54 countries, ranging from the largest global investment banks to smaller retail banks and asset managers. Central banks, exchanges, credit rating agencies and law firms are also members.

Now in its 47th year, the ICMA Annual General Meeting and Conference is one of the key events in the financial market calendar. With noted speakers from governments, regulatory authorities, central banks and financial institutions, it consistently draws a large audience of high level participants from ICMA’s international membership and the wider financial community.

The event is held in a different location every year. The ICMA AGM 2015 will be held in Amsterdam.

Berlin 2014

The 2014 AGM, held at the InterContinental Hotel in the centre of Berlin in June, attracted more than 700 participants from global financial markets. Following the format of previous events (Copenhagen in 2013, Milan in 2012 and Paris in 2011) the two receptions/networking events were held on consecutive evenings at spectacular and contrasting locations. Conference delegates enjoyed unique private access to the New National Gallery and the breathtaking German Historical Museum.

Lead sponsors in Berlin were the major banks in the region (and ICMA members), Commerzbank and Deutsche Bank.
