Loan Market Association

Loan Market Association
Loan Market Association (LMA)
A market-led body established in December 1996 to foster an environment in the Euromarkets that would facilitate the development of a secondary market for loans. Its overall mission is acting as the voice of the syndicated loan market (both the primary and secondary markets) in Europe for banks, borrowers, regulators and other participants. It works closely with its sister associations in New York and the Far East on global issues.
