Most people pay no attention to capital market structure, which is a wonky name for the ways in which a society interacting with regulators and governments creates the rules and practices for trading stocks, bonds, commodities and real estate. We are delighted to begin a series of discussions on regional market structure issues and developments with David Alvarez, a long-time expert in global capital markets, with specific expertise in Latin America. Pull up a chair! We deliver pithy brilliance, sheer value for time spent!
