What will be the first watershed moment in the new year?** It will be the enactment of Securities Financing Transactions Regulation, which finally was approved by the European Commission on December 14.  The first phase of SFTR adoption will take effect in the second quarter of 2020.  SFTR preparations largely have been put on hold by much of the industry due to concern over timing (now resolved) and Brexit. With a formal timeline now approved, SFTR will be a game changer for the industry due to the level of information it will demand across securities financing, with each transaction required to be reported to a trade repository and attached to an LEI. **What was the most important lesson of 2018?** It was the value of data. Regulation and market participant demand highlight the data's value, which is a given in many other markets.  The Office of Financial Research is proposing an enhanced data collection rule designed to offer greater visibility for the Financial Stability Oversight Council to monitor for market risks and instability is but another leading indicator. Repo markets will continue to evolve around efficiency and data through 2019.
