New Speakers Added!

New Speakers Added & More...

Join us as we return to Washington DC, Oct. 6-8, for our flagship event, the 88th Annual Market Structure Conference. Our theme for 2021, The Great Return, illustrates the mix of old and new that will define this year's event. The program will feature U.S. regulators and distinguished industry leaders.

Washington DC has fully reopened but we realize that travel restrictions may preclude some from attending. For this reason, this year's conference will be presented as a hybrid event. Keynotes, firesides and panel discussions that take place onsite will be livestreamed to a virtual audience.

Information on how to register and our cancellation policy can be found below.
