Advocating for Your Fixed Income Business
Matt Boles
Direct, focused, and successful muni market advocacy pure and simple. RBC is a member of BDA and I’m on the Board of Directors because we deeply believe in the importance of defending the muni bond market.
John Miller
I am on the Board and my firm is a long time member of BDA because we find value in the advocacy we receive in DC which enhances our fixed income business. From regulatory to legislative, and market structure challenges, the BDA works directly with us to solve problems and improve our business.
Brian Brennan
KeyBanc Capital Markets (KBCM) is proud to be one of 15 founding members of BDA. Since its inception in 2008, BDA has grown to its membership to more than 70 firms. Attending BDA events with fixed income leadership across many different types of dealers and trade execution providers has been extremely beneficial for our team, as the markets have seen significant structural and regulatory change. The BDA has always stayed at the forefront with regulatory guidance and provides a way to interface as peers, helping us to advance the bond business at KBCM.

I think it’s the direct, focused advocacy that sets BDA apart and is why we’ve been members since the founding in 2008. They understand our issues and aggressively work to improve our fixed income business here at SouthState | DuncanWilliams, and at all our member firms.

With so many challenges to the bond markets we value the work of BDA as it not only advances BDA member priorities but improves the US bond markets for all sell side dealers. As former BDA chair I can testify that the bond markets need a strong advocate in DC, and the BDA is delivering on that every day.

Targeted advocacy for fixed income is essential because of the unique nature of our products and markets. I serve on the BDA Board because I believe in their work as a successful advocate in DC for the U.S. bond markets.
