I'm Cate Long and I write about the retail fixed income markets… My primary interest is creating tools and systems to help retail investors learn how bonds can be an excellent supplement to their other retirement and savings assets. I've worked for a number of years with industry standards organizations, regulators and Congress to help craft a more transparent and fair framework for investors to participate in the fixed income markets. Specific areas of focus include: >> FIX, the standard for the electronic trading of fixed income securities…. >> The oversight of credit rating agencies >> Disclosure and price transparency Thanks for reading my articles.
