As financial institutions face mounting regulatory pressure, rising interest rates, and accelerating innovation, one event is poised to deliver the insights and strategies needed to stay ahead. The 19th Annual Collateral Management and Securities Lending Forum, organized by Fleming, will gather Europe’s leading financial minds for two days of knowledge-sharing, practical case studies, and high-level networking in Amsterdam.
The forum is built for senior professionals who manage risk, collateral, and securities lending operations across buy-side and sell-side firms. This year’s theme, “Innovation, Regulation and Market Resilience” reflects the industry’s renewed focus on efficiency, compliance, and transformation in a highly dynamic environment.
Why This Forum Matters
With nearly two decades of heritage, the forum has earned its reputation as the premier European event in its space. It is a platform for decision-makers to challenge assumptions, learn from real-world experience, and return to their organizations with tangible strategies and fresh perspectives.
The 2025 agenda has been developed in close collaboration with over 20 senior financial services professionals to ensure relevance and depth. Attendees can expect:
- 13+ real-life collateral use cases from top-tier institutions
- 6+ interactive sessions and panels
- 8+ hours of expert-driven content
- Live electronic polling, Q&A, and feedback tools
Practical Topics for a Complex Financial World
This year’s sessions will cut through theory and focus on practical insights, strategic challenges, and operational solutions. Topics include:
- The evolving regulatory landscape, including UMR, CSDR, and T+1 impacts
- Technology and innovation: How AI, machine learning, and tokenization are reshaping collateral workflows
- Liquidity strategies in a cleared environment
- Dispute management, margin call differences, and optimization
- Systemic risk safeguards and stress-testing frameworks
- Buy-side perspectives on counterparty risk, funding cost optimization, and securities lending transformation
Each session is led by professionals on the front lines who are creating, implementing, and refining processes in real-time. Attendees will benefit not just from structured presentations but also from open conversations, breakout sessions, and peer learning opportunities.
Reflecting on a previous edition, Itzel Soto Narvaez, Head of Global Collateral Management at ING, shared:
“It was my pleasure to participate again in the forum — great way to create awareness in the industry! My compliments also for the good organization and flexibility.”
Her words echo the value many returning participants find in the forum’s rich mix of expertise, interaction, and execution-focused content.
Turn Insight into Action
The forum concludes with a Wrap-Up Hackathon, a unique format where attendees break into small groups to synthesize insights from the two-day program and co-create actionable takeaways. It’s a forward-thinking approach designed to help leaders return to their organizations equipped with clear priorities, implementation ideas, and new connections they can call upon long after the event ends.
This forum offers the content and connections to help you move forward with confidence. Whether you’re leading a collateral transformation program or simply seeking clarity on new regulatory trends.
