As we approach the end of the year, we’d like to take a moment to thank all our OnTheRegs readers for spending a few minutes with us each week.

As the list shows, OnTheRegs covered a wide spectrum of topics this year, ranging from the thorny issues of Brexit and fund liquidity to specific regulations such as SEC liquidity reporting, CSDR, and SRD II.  As we look ahead to 2020, it is very likely that the most prominent themes of 2019 will likely continue well into the new year and beyond. We are also likely to see new challenges and opportunities as the asset management landscape continues to evolve through regulatory shifts.

In case you missed one, here are the top ten most read blog posts of the year:
