11:10 Case Study: Strategies to implement the FSB recommendations on market structure

Chip has most recently been working on new benchmarking execution strategies to create efficiencies in electronic FX benchmark trading in line with FSB recommendations, and will be sharing his expert insight on:

What can you do to create a trusted and secure service that reduces information leakage and can lessen market volatility around WM/Reuters fixing windows?
How can you reduce costs and improve transparent end-to-end processes which deliver WM/Reuters mid-rate net of fully disclosed embedded fee?
What strategies can you undertake to replace the present bilateral buy-side to sell-side benchmark order submissions
