With 2016 being the year in which the market embraces and implements EMIR OTC Clearing, buy side firms are looking to complete their projects and start analyzing how to allocate their portfolios to cope with increased capital costs, higher margin requirements and the collateral squeeze. As regulatory changes continue to shape and challenge our industry, traditional (business) models need to evolve to provide buy side firms and sell side alike with efficient solutions to manage their risk and costs.
Eurex Clearing has developed a direct CCP access model for the buy side – ISA Direct – which allows for higher capital efficiencies of both derivatives and securities financing transactions – while at the same time improving portability in case of default.
Please join us for an insightful event to mark the launch of our direct access model and to discuss and network with industry experts on the challenges and opportunities for the buy side in the new regulated market.
