In this special extended episode, Christian Rossler and Andrew Keith Walker are joined in a lively discussion by special guests David Escoffier (CEO, LSF) and James Cherry (Clearstream) to discuss the LSF Secretariat's plans to reduce the burden of financing costs for African Sovereigns and high-quality counterparties through establishing secondary markets for African repos, and increase African green bond issuances to help finance their climate goals.
David discusses the mechanics of the LSF's plans to build a $20Bn plus repo market within 5 years, and James discusses the role that Clearstream's Triparty Repo solutions can play in these new Eurobond-backed repo markets - plus we consider the vital role of the private sector, Sovereign Wealth Funds and large financial counterparties to reaching Africa's climate goals and net-zero targets.
Plus we have a little time to celebrate Bastille Day and discuss our holiday plans before the August break.
