TriOptima, a leading infrastructure service that lowers costs and mitigates risk in OTC derivatives markets, announced that it reduced the total Singapore dollars notional outstanding at LCH by 50% by compressing SGD 1.7T in interest rate derivatives H1 2021.
This contributes to a record 12 months with TriOptima successfully terminating over SGD 3.5 trillion worth of notional across 39 participants, including direct clearing members, clients, and clearing brokers.
The latest Singapore dollar compression run on Jun 23, 2021 also saw firms adopt TriOptima’s benchmark conversion service for the first time.
