We will be holding our LMA Certificate Course in its original live, in-person format from 4 to 8 April 2022 at Grand Connaught Rooms in London.
The LMA Certificate Course is a one week training course aimed at those working in the banking and institutional investor markets looking to gain a broad understanding of the workings of the primary and secondary syndicated loan market. The course can be for those working in the legal profession.
It is designed for those who are:
- Relatively new to international banking; or
- Practitioners, working in one segment of the loan market, who require a broader overview of the various activities which make up the syndicated loan market; or
- Junior personnel in origination, distribution or a trading team; or
- Seeking to enter a syndication team and need to develop their knowledge of the market; or
- Practitioners in other product groups, such as asset swaps, CDS and relative value, who require an insight into the syndicated loan market.
An overview of the course programme is available under the Agenda tab of this webpage.
