ICMA forms UK & Americas regional committee
20 May 2025 UK, US

The International Capital Market Association (ICMA) has formed a regional committee for the UK and the Americas, and appointed two vice-chairs to support the region’s long-standing chair.
The UK and Americas region represents the association’s largest and most diverse membership, says ICMA, including 201 institutions.
The chair, Tim Skeet, comments: "Regional committees are such an important part of ICMA’s work in the capital markets, providing valuable expertise at the local level, which can be leveraged across international forums, working groups and advisory structures.”
ICMA describes its regional committees as a link with the membership, providing an additional layer of input from the numerous market practice and regulatory policy committees and working groups.
The new vice-chairs are Shrey Kohli, head of debt capital markets and issuer services for the London Stock Exchange, and Ruth Burrell, head of legal, capital markets, and corporate advisory at Standard Advisory London.
In their new roles, they will support Skeet, chief institutional relationship officer for the London branch of the Bank of China, who is also a deputy-chair of the Committee of Regional Representatives — composed of all the chairs of the various ICMA regions.
Skeet adds: “I look forward to working with the cice-chairs and the rest of the committee to represent the expanding and increasingly diverse UK membership, and in particular, those members not already well-represented across the many working groups of the association.”
