The annual survey assesses leading securities lenders and borrowers across diverse asset categories, geographical areas, and job functions. This study encompasses both equity lending and borrowing, with a focus on two categories: the 15 largest participants (G1) and mid-tier financing companies (G2). Additionally, the survey evaluates fixed income lending, technology providers, and data firms, highlighting the top-performing companies based on feedback from their peers, without disclosing comprehensive lists.
To participate in each survey, please use the following links:
