FOW Post Trade Event -- London -- May 11

Richard Wilkinson, Director Post Trade Solutions at Contango Markets, will be moderating a session 'Building a new business model for clearing' at FOW's Post Trade event on Monday 11 May in London at 14:00.

With the introduction of mandatory OTC clearing around the corner, there remain unanswered questions over both the cost of capital, default contributions and the fee structure of client clearing. Dicky's panel will provide an analysis of the challenges and opportunities in the new world of clearing and answer how the current model needs to change.

• How should a bank’s portfolio impact capital usage? • How does an agency model change how clients are charged? • How will smaller players compete? • What is the new business model for clearing?
