09:45 All Star Panel: Forming a successful trading desk in 2016- What are the people, process and technology requirements needed?

As your external world radically changes, internal reform is required in order for you to keep abreast of the ongoing changes happening outside your office. As the traditional methods of trading fixed income change, it is vital that you build an internal trading environment which will not only harness these external changes, but help you steer your desk through these winds of change. This ‘All Star Panel’ with representation from the full fixed income value chain, will provide expertise on:
  • Assessing the impact of the developing regulatory environment - What makes a compliant trading desk in 2016?
  • How should you set up your internal structures to match an evolving external environment?
  • What strategies can you exploit to overcome reduced dealer balance sheets and ensure you are tapping into the right liquidity hubs?
  • Trading and operations - Who should you partner with as the traditional roles of market players change and evolve?
  • What technological trends can you take advantage of now to improve your trading performance in 2016 and beyond?
