BGC and the world’s leading global investment banks and market-making firms have partnered to create FMX, a combined US Interest Rate Futures Exchange, spot foreign exchange platform, and the world’s fastest-growing US cash treasuries platform.

An informative white paper from Coalition Greenwich (a division of CRISIL), “The Portfolio Margining Imperative for Interest-Rate Derivatives,” explores the associated benefits the FMX Futures Exchange will provide for the U.S. interest rate futures landscape, such as potential margining optimization benefits and opportunities for market participants to clear their swaps in one place at LCH.
