Hedge funds warn Bank of England repo reforms could backfire

Original: Hedge funds warn BoE repo reforms could backfire

Hedge funds are warning the Bank of England that its proposed reforms to the UK gilt repo market could backfire, arguing the measures risk reducing liquidity rather than strengthening it. The intervention comes as the BoE reviews post-2022 gilt crisis safeguards, with investors cautioning that tighter rules could push activity into less transparent channels instead of calming the market.

Why now: The Bank of England's repo market reform proposals directly affect hedge fund trading strategies and are drawing pushback from the industry.
