Representing securities firms active in the US bond markets, and facing regulatory and legislative challenges, the BDA provides direct and focused advocacy to improve the fixed income business at member firms.
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.
