On June 5th the Canadian Trading community will be gathering in Toronto to address the critical business issues impacting trading desks across this evolving region at the annual FPL Canadian Trading Conference.
This event has been created by the Canadian trading community to get to the heart of the real issues impacting this market. In just one day it will offer a forum for debate, the valued insight and expert opinions of more than 40 industry leading speakers and multiple opportunities to meet with key decision makers from across Canada.
Senior Canadian market participants have worked together to develop the event’s program. Their first-hand knowledge has created the most up-to-date and relevant agenda possible. Featuring separate business and technical streams, topics for discussion will include:
• how proposed changes to Canadian regulation could affect electronic trading and Direct Electronic Access (DEA) to marketplaces
• the challenges of managing risk across the business and new solutions being developed to support different asset classes
• how regulatory reforms for OTC derivatives could impact capital requirements, trade execution, trade reporting and clearing/settlement
• how using FIX to support equity post-trade processing could help firms to improve risk management, enhance transparency, reduced costs, and heighten efficiencies
• a review of the kind of data that should be examined to increase market understanding and evaluate execution quality
