"It was a real plus being able to attend the in-person sessions for some of the ‘drier’ subject matter and for that I’m ever thankful. Now when I think of market conduct and formal reporting obligations, I’m reminded of the examples shared by the IR Society or by the in-house teams in the room, rather than a sea of acronyms that have the very real potential of merging into one very unhealthy and forgettable alphabet soup."
