MSRB Annual Report 2019

MSRB Annual Report 2019
The MSRB is dedicated to overseeing the nearly $4.0 trillion municipal securities market—the primary market that helps fund important state and local government infrastructure projects. Fiscal Year 2019, which ended September 30, 2019, marked a renewed emphasis on stakeholder engagement to support the implementation of our multi-year 
strategic goals.

  

“We have long recognized that engaging with stakeholders outside the boardroom can inform our priorities and shed light on the impact of MSRB’s rules, resources and activities on market participants. Stakeholder feedback made each of the MSRB’s 2019 initiatives more effective, efficient and impactful.”

Ed Sisk, Chair of the MSRB Board of Directors
