Euronext.liffe and the Over-the-Counter Derivatives Market (A)
Abstract
Euronext.liffe, a derivatives trading exchange, had just finished rolling out three new services targeted at the over-the-counter (OTC) market in 2004. The services offered automated confirmation and clearing for OTC equity derivatives. Yet, developments in the industry seemed to call for a re-evaluation of the exchange's OTC strategy. Describes the exchange and OTC markets for derivatives, Euronext.liffe's existing OTC services, and the other key market participants in 2004. Provides the information needed to evaluate the exchange's existing OTC services and consider other ways in which the exchange could create value for the industry.
