The ABMI Brief series offers insights into professional bond markets, their development, and the necessary or desirable components for issuers, investors, market intermediaries, regulatory authorities, policymakers, academia, and other interested parties. Individual briefs are dedicated to specific subjects discussed in ABMF, CSIF, and the Digital Bond Market Forum (DBMF), given their relevance for domestic bond markets.
ABMI Brief シリーズは、プロフェッショナル債券市場とその発展、そして発行体、投資家、市場仲介機関、規制当局、政策立案者、学界、その他の利害関係者にとって必要または望ましい要素に関する洞察を提供します。各Briefは、ABMF、CSIF、およびデジタル債券市場フォーラム(DBMF)で議論された特定のテーマに焦点を当て国内債券市場との関連性を考慮しています。
The ASEAN+3 Bond Market Forum (ABMF) started publishing the ABMF Brief series in January 2023, and the Cross-Border Settlement Infrastructure Forum (CSIF) began the CSIF Brief series in December 2023. A total of 10 ABMF and CSIF briefs had been issued by January 2025. To better reflect that ABMF and CSIF activities support the Asian Bond Markets Initiative (ABMI) mandate to develop the ASEAN+3 local currency bond markets, the original 10 briefs have been reissued as ABMI Briefs in June 2025. This section contains the original ABMF Briefs and CSIF Briefs reissued as ABMI Briefs, in the order of their original date of publication, and the subsequent ABMI Briefs published from June 2025.
ASEAN+3債券市場フォーラム(ABMF)は2023年1月からABMFブリーフシリーズの発行を開始し、クロスボーダー決済インフラフォーラム(CSIF)は2023年12月からCSIFブリーフシリーズの発行を開始しました。2025年1月までに、ABMFとCSIFは合計10件のブリーフを発行しました。今般、ABMFとABMFとCSIFの活動が、ASEAN+3現地通貨建て債券市場の発展を目指すアジア債券市場育成イニシアチブ(ABMI)の使命を支援していることをより明確に反映するため、元の10件のブリーフは2025年6月にABMIブリーフとして再発行されました。本セクションでは、ABMIブリーフとして再発行された元のABMFブリーフとCSIFブリーフを、発行日順に掲載しています。また、2025年6月以降に発行されたABMIブリーフも順次掲載してまいります。
