Thank you to the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) and the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) for inviting me to deliver the concluding remarks at the end of the two-day workshop of the Emerging Markets Dialogue on Over-The-Counter (OTC) Derivatives Reform, as well as for sponsoring this very important and topical event.
I would also like to extend my thanks to our co-hosts, namely the National Treasury, in particular Deputy Minister Nene, and the Financial Services Board through Deputy Chief Executive Officer Bert Chanetsa. Last but certainly not least, I would like to thank the many staff members from all organisations co-hosting, who have contributed to the organization and success of this event.
