Welcome
Derivatives Service Providers Roundtable on July 22, 2008
It is no longer business as usual; the industry has committed to more modern derivatives processing methods to keep up with the volumes and to reduce risks. Accordingly, in addition to needing the help of its sell side trading partners, the buy side needs to tap the resources of industry service providers.
Attendees at this Derivatives Service Provider Roundtable and Exposition will learn about the technology available today to meet the goals in the OMG[1] March 2008 letter to the Fed. Since the goal of electronic novations is set for December 2008, time is of the essence. Your firm cannot afford to miss this opportunity that is being brought to you through a joint effort of ISDA®, MFA and SIFMA. This presentation is part of the continuing efforts of these trade groups to implement the industry-wide processing plans and standards spelled out in the above mentioned OMG letter and embraced by the buy side and the sell side in their dealings with industry leaders and relevant regulatory authorities.
This Derivatives Service Provider Roundtable and Exposition is for members of the industry and is not open to the press. There is no charge for this event. Also, the various service providers which offer services in derivatives processing will exhibit these services to attendees at the event.
This event is intended for industry members and is not open to the press.
[1] The OMG (Operations Management Group) is comprised of the 18 major dealers and individual buy-side institutions, including four member firms of SIFMA AMG and four member firms of MFA.
