Many of the issues that arose out of the Benchmark Study happen to be encountered through the broker medium. These issues were addressed by representatives of the Interdealer Brokers Association(IDBA) in conjunction with the CCFP [Canadian Committee for Professionalism]. The result was a set of best market practices(attached) for the wholesale brokered foreign exchange market. In addition to guidelines respecting, for example, confidentiality and professional standards, these best practices address the issue of branch to branch spot transactions consummated through a broker and also the setting of spot rates on forward transactions when dealing through a broker. 2, record 1, English, - Interdealer%20Brokers%20Association

Il se trouve qu'un grand nombre des problèmes décelés par l'enquête repère concernaient les intermédiaires entre courtiers. Ces problèmes ont été examinés par des représentants de l'Interdealer Brokers Association (IDBA), en collaboration avec le CCD [Comité du code de déontologie], et cet examen a donné lieu à l'élaboration d'un ensemble de pratiques exemplaires se rapportant aux opérations de gros effectuées sur le marché des changes par un intermédiaire entre courtiers. En plus de fournir des lignes directrices relatives, par exemple, à la confidentialité et aux normes de professionnalisme, ces pratiques exemplaires abordent la question des opérations au comptant de succursale à succursale exécutées par un intermédiaire entre courtiers, ainsi que la détermination des cours du change au comptant dans les opérations à terme effectuées par un intermédiaire entre courtiers. 2, record 1, French, - Interdealer%20Brokers%20Association

To enhance liquidity in Government of Canada bonds, a pilot bond buyback program was implemented in 1998-99. The purpose of this program is to buy back existing less liquid bonds to support the maintenance of a liquid new bond issue market. By buying back less liquid bonds, the government's ability to maintain its strategy of building large benchmark bonds at key maturities is facilitated. 1, record 2, English, - pilot%20bond%20buyback%20program

Le programme pilote de rachat d'obligations s'étendra à 1999-2009. Afin d'accroître la liquidité des obligations du gouvernement canadien, un projet pilote de rachat d'obligations a été instauré en 1998-1999. Le but du programme est de racheter des obligations relativement peu liquides afin de contribuer au maintien d'un marché liquide des nouvelles émissions. Le rachat d'obligations peu liquides renforce la capacité du gouvernement de maintenir sa stratégie de développement d'importantes émissions de référence, à des échéances clés. 1, record 2, French, - programme%20pilote%20de%20rachat%20d%27obligations
