Fifteen years after the pivotal Pittsburgh summit of 2009, where the G20 nations mandated central counterparty clearing for all standardised derivatives contracts, the landscape of financial markets has transformed dramatically. The introduction of the Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures in 2012 marked the beginning of a wave of stability-focused regulations that reshaped global finance.
However, as we move through 2024, the industry faces new challenges and opportunities, driven by a desire to shift focus from stability alone towards enhancing competitiveness and efficiency.
The session “Clearing 15 years on from Pittsburgh: Where next?” at PostTrade 360° Nordic 2024 offers an unparalleled opportunity to take stock of the current state of clearing and explore the future direction of this critical component of financial markets. With geopolitical concerns adding layers of complexity across jurisdictions, this session provides a vital temperature check on clearing practices and policies.
This high-level discussion will feature:
María José Gómez Yubero, head of Resolution, Benchmarks and Financial Stability Issues, National Securities Market Commission of Spain
Perrine Herrenschmidt, head of Brussels Office, ISDA
Gilles Hervé, senior policy officer, European Commission
David Murphy, visiting professor in practice, LSE
Rafael Plata, Secretary General, EACH
