Argentarius was one of the exhibitor sponsors at the ABS Vegas 2016 conference, co-hosted by SFIG and IMN, at the Aria Resort & Casino in Las Vegas between February 28 and March 2, 2016.
The event hosted more than 6200 guests among which the number of issuers and investors exceeded 2300.
The first day of the conference served as an introduction, giving an overview on the market for asset-backed security (ABS), residential mortgage-backed security (RMBS), asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), marketplace lending, collateralized loan obligation (CLO), leveraged loans and regulatory developments.
In the following days topics were covered both from the issuer's and investors' perspective. The subject of the presentation varied from rating agencies, green bonds through alternative lenders for SMEs.
Before the last day of the conference a social networking event was organised, the Oktoberfest Networking Happy Hour. Argentarius hosted a beer tasting reception at its booth on Tuesday from 6:00pm until 7:00pm, March 1st in the Exhibit Hall featuring German food, drink and entertainment.
The closing day was an overview of the African, Canadian, Chinese and Pan-Asian market developments.
Last but not least, we would like to thank the hosts – IMN – for organizing such a successful event and we look forward to participating on their future events.
