Arbejdernes Landsbank expects to commence trading in derivatives on the Copenhagen Stock Exchange at the beginning of May.
CFO Jan Ovesen said: "We look forward to the cooperation with Arbejdernes Landsbank, whose membership of the FUTOP Clearing Centre emphasises the growing interest in listed derivatives in Denmark."
Treasury Manager Jan W. Andersen, Arbejdernes Landsbank, said: "We find the use of listed derivatives to be a natural part of efficient risk and portfolio management - and so we look forward to getting direct market access to both Swedish and Danish derivatives - and to seeing the FUTOP market progress further in the years to come for the benefit of our customers."
