In the latest Unfiltered video, Eva Szalay talks to Simon Bevan, global head of e-trading at ING, about what they term “unusual” market conditions, that are throwing up a paradox in terms of client reactions.
The two discuss the various drivers of market activity, as well as what to some may seem strange, the role of technology in calming volatility. They also look at the different conditions in emerging markets and G10 markets, before moving onto a more in-depth look at the role of AI in FX trading and a subject that has just about everyone in the FX industry looking at it – costs.
