Our key objective is to improve liquidity, efficiency and transparency in the primary and secondary syndicated loan markets in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA). Through our work on documentation, education, regulation and market practice, we seek to promote the syndicated loan as one of the key debt products available to borrowers across the region. As the authoritative voice of the syndicated loan market in EMEA, we work with lenders, law firms, borrowers and regulators to educate the market about the benefits of the syndicated loan product, and to remove barriers to entry for new participants. Since our establishment in 1996, our membership has grown steadily and now stands at over 700 organisations from 64 countries. Membership comprises commercial and investment banks, DFIs, ECAs, Central Banks, Regulators, institutional investors, law firms, service providers and rating agencies.
