Multi-Asset Trading Platforms: Setting the Stage Bob Giffords Banking & Technology Analyst Independent Consultant The Big Bang of the 80s, made way for economies of scale abolishing fixed commissions on trading shares and saw the investment into new in-house trading technology. With the rise of take overs and acquisitions, companies looked to finance via a medium of financial instruments. Additionally, the growth of private equity and hedge funds has also increased demand for multi-assets ranging from the traditional bonds to alternative products. As the 'new firms' on the street expand into traditional prop trading roles, the increase in competition and ever diminishing margins through greater transparency has lead to a wealth of electronic offerings from multi-dealer platforms. What is the future appetite for a one-stop shop cross-asset solutions platform? |

MiFID Securities Trading: Creating a Single Market with Global Impact Over recent months the European trading Environment has witnessed significant change. Market structure has evolved, business practices have been enhanced, barriers to competition have been removed and a growing number of new execution venues have emerged. This session will explore the status and glitches of MiFID implementation across Europe: How up to date is your firm’s passport? What impact on your trading activity and your client relationships? It will include an update from the European Commission and discuss the challenges faced by firms as they seek to conduct security transactions across Europe post-MiFID. This session will also review MiFID in the global marketplace, comparing it with other similar regulations (eg US Reg NMS - Are these regulations twins, cousins or distant relatives?) and will discuss more broadly how MiFID fits in the current EU-US debate on creating a more effective and efficient regulatory regime for transatlantic capital markets transactions, including mutual recognition.

Hedge Funds Panel How have last summer's events affected the eTrading distribution/prices/liquidity to the HF? Is eTrading is now the best way to channel HF needs? How do HF feel in the different products? Has the gap between the plain vanilla and more complex structure widened? What is the perceived future of the eTrading distribution? Do you find that eTrading offers adequate access to liquidity? Could any improvement in eTrading benefit greater liquidity? How is liquidity today? Is there still room for exchange model in the plain vanilla business? How are new distribution channels such as Liquidity Hub perceived? Are HF interested in market making? What are the next steps for eTrading? What should the next developments be? Is eTrading a way to avoid settlement problems more so than a trading capacity? How will liquidity and the crisis will affect the HF business model?
