We are committed to continue leading the work of this association to provide increasingly safer and more efficient capital markets.’.
The EACH Secretary General Rafael Plata said: ‘It is a pleasure to see the CCP Clearing ecosystem thrive more than ever, with an increasing number of sell-side and buy-side participants benefiting from CCP services, a growing number of academics and journalists covering CCP clearing subjects and a robust set of global and regional regulatory standards agreed by public authorities. I look forward to further engaging with the clearing ecosystem to make it grow even more.’.
