​Global EQD Day One: Rates, Brexit And Nikkei Opportunity

While interest rate policy and potential Brexit volatility dominated discussion during day one of the Global EQD Conference at the Aria Las Vegas Wednesday, it was the potential opportunities in the Nikkei that caught the attention of buysiders, allocators and market makers. Topics discussed during a range of presentations and panels from leading volatility market participants, covered areas including a macro model for volatility across the business cycle, how to measure central bank policies and how the current macro environment, coupled with structured products flows, is distorting many asset classes.
