Keeping Abreast Of An Evolving FX Landscape

Wednesday, February 1st, 2017


14:40 One on One Interview: Mapping out the FX Prime Broker landscape (FXPBs) - How can FXPBs better service the buy side amidst the back drop of increased capital requirements?

Over recent years, (FXPBs) have vastly dropped in numbers, leaving the few who are left to dominate the landscape. Also, after the SNB debacle and ‘Black Thursday’ as it is now famously known as, Prime Broker’s perspectives on FX and what risk they are taking has drastically changed. This session, led by a leading Prime broker, will provide expertise on:

  • How are the roles of FXPBs changing amidst the back drop of regulation and increased capital requirements?
  • How can prime brokers offer a more open relationship to the buy side to provide direct market access and new liquidity?
  • What do ‘Prime of Prime’ brokers mean for liquidity- Are they a threat to liquidity or are they able to offer a more tailored service to buy side clients?
  • The PB evolution post SNB: What services can FXPBs be expected to offer to the buy side after the SNB debacle?
  • How will the FXPB landscape develop over the next 5 years and what will the suite of services look like?
