09:50 Cross Asset Panel: Equities vs. FX- What lessons can you learn from the equities evolution and transfer to your FX trading desk?

The FX industry is presently going through changes not too dissimilar from the equities asset class 5-10 years ago. Therefore there are some correlations between the two classes and transferable lessons to be learnt. This senior level panel brings together three experts who also have a strong background in equities who will share their tips on synergies to lookout for. Attend this panel to find out:
  • Recognising the key differences between equities and FX- what can we learn from the equities evolution?
  • Has the new regulatory landscape created the environment for a far reaching transformation towards an equities-like market structure for FX?
  • Is an equities-like environment in which most trades are done on an agency basis and executed via exchange now within the realm of possibility?
  • Technological innovation- what tools and lessons can you take to prosper in the new market?
