ISDA Webinar: The Foundations of an Efficient Market Infrastructure

ISDA hosted an introductory webinar, which provides an overview of an ISDA initiative to facilitate the adoption of emerging technologies, such as distributed ledger and smart contracts. The webinar covers the importance of common data and process standards to aid interoperability, and provides an update on ISDA’s work to identify and define core lifecycle events and actions and consolidate them within a so-called common domain model (CDM).
