UOB group head of global markets Leslie Foo said that the bank is proud to be the first ForexClear member in Southeast Asia.

“Our partnership with LCH will enable us to unlock further liquidity across multiple asset classes, particularly as regulations have placed greater financial resource requirements across our portfolios. We will also benefit from LCH’s world class risk management solutions and the capital and margin efficiencies that it will enable across our rates and FX clearing activity,” Food said.
