“Although mtn-i's services have competition in the euro and Asian markets, no publication has been able to cover the market so comprehensively across the retail and institutional customer channels in the US structured note market. I know our corporate and government clients who borrow so frequently from this market rely heavily on their daily updates from mtn-i in setting their borrowing policy and monitoring the markets. This is also true of the dealer community and all my team members are expected to follow closely usmtn-i regular updates on the US structured note market. Long may it last." Marc Falconer, Head of Rates Structuring Americas, Citigroup.

“I attended mtn-i’s first conference as a co-sponsor (for Eksportfinans) and, I have to say, I was flabbergasted with the set-up and the execution of the conference. The mtn-i team did an outstanding job. When I, towards the end of the conference, had an opportunity to speak to the audience, I took the opportunity to congratulate mtn-i. The reaction from the audience was cheers and applause!” Søren Elbech, Chief, Treasury Division, Inter-American Development Bank
