A dynamic landscape

Indeed, FX Liquidity is a landscape that never truly stops changing. In doing so, it provides endless opportunities and pitfalls for market participants. This panel discussion will be on full display at London Summit 2019, featuring several elites of the industry.

This includes the following panelists:

• (Moderator) Hormoz Faryar - Global Head of Institutional Business of Equiti Group
• Ian Daniels - Head of eFX Distribution EMEA & Americas, Nomura
• Alexei Jiltsov – Co-Founder, Tradefeedr
• Jeremy Smart – Global Head of Distribution, XTX Markets
• Andrew Biggs – Head of Liquidity, CFH
• Conor Daly – EMEA Head of eFX Sales, Goldman Sachs

In this panel, these individuals will discuss everything from ‘the good and the bad’ news – significant progress areas as well as pressing issues in the FX markets and the outlook for liquidity consumers, as well as the ‘must-know’ topics which are crucial in what the future will bring.

In addition, attendees can expect to hear actionable insight regarding the march of new analytical tools. What are the latest developments, and how can consumers use them?

What are the implications for platforms and LPs? Is FX liquidity fragmentation still a primary concern, and to what extent do the larger banks control the market, and are they taking enough risk?
