In the penultimate excerpt from Colin Lambert’s talk with LSEG FX, Andrew Batchelor, head of LCH ForexClear, and James Pearson, head of FX at LSEG, answer Lambert’s simple question, ‘how do we move the needle on clearing in FX?’
They discuss the importance of close links with both optimisation services and the trading platforms, as well as the benefits it can bring, particularly in reducing settlement risk in CNH.
