Introducing clearing to the euro-denominated bonds market enables participants to mitigate counterparty risk and benefit from straight-through processing efficiencies and is in line with regulators' demands to bring more OTC products into clearing.
Christophe Hémon, Chief Executive, LCH.Clearnet SA said: "We wanted to bring all the benefits of clearing to the euro-denominated bond markets by improving transparency, liquidity, post-trade services and reporting. Together with NYSE Euronext we look forward to supporting the future growth of this market."
