This week on the podcast, Anthony is joined by Waters reporter Emilia David to discuss her feature that looked at technology adoption in the municipal bond market. And since the summer has finally arrived, Anthony and Emilia look at the summer movies they’re most interested in seeing. Here are the timestamps, in case you want to jump around: (0:00-2:05) The intro offers a reminder to vote in this year’s Waters Rankings, and also we announce our newest addition to the Waters team, who will be joining next week. (2:15) Before they look at the technology platforms permeating the market, they first give a primer for the municipal bond market. (3:50) The two greatest challenges facing the muni space: rising interest rates and the potential for more debt being issued to help launch infrastructure projects across the US. (7:30) From a technology perspective, what advancements are helping to drive automated adoption? (9:30) The muni space is still very voice driven—as muni traders tend to be set in their ways—but they are missing out on finding bonds that they normally wouldn’t have looked at had they used an electronic platform. (11:50) To that point, the generational difference in the space is still a limiting factor. (15:10) Like we’re seeing with corporate bonds, is there room for artificial intelligence and machine learning in the sector? Or still too soon? (17:10) Some believe that the market is in for a lot of turmoil over the next few years. Will that lead people to rely more heavily on automated practices or will these platforms prove ineffective, thus setting the tech push back? (18:15) Anthony and Emilia close things out by looking at the summer movies they’re most interested in.
