ABOUT THE BOOK
The Repo market is the most important market that few people know about. It’s a pillar of the financial system that’s often misunderstood, yet plays a vital role in the industry. If the financial markets are the engine that powers the economy, the Repo market is the oil that lubricates that engine.
The entire financial system relies on the Repo market. There would be no modern financial system without the Repo market. At the same time, there would have been no Salomon Brothers, Long Term Capital Management, Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, or MF Global without the Repo market either.
Industry veteran, Scott E.D. Skyrm provides a rare insider’s view into everything you need to know about the Repo Market in this easy to understand and highly readable book.
Scott Skyrm is one of the leading figures in the repo and securities finance markets today, and regularly quoted in The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, Bloomberg News Service, Reuters, Market News, The New York Times, and Dow Jones.
He is highly regarded as a salesman, trader, trading desk manager, and global business head in fixed-income, securities finance, and securities clearing and settlement.
He’s been writing commentaries on the repo market, the short-end of the Treasury market, Federal Reserve policy and general Wall Street topics for over 20 years and have taken billion dollar risks on the trading floor, managed a multi-billion dollar balance sheet, and consistently ran one of the most profitable trading groups at every firm where he worked.
