Singapore Exchange lists Credit Suisse to clear OTC financial derivatives

Credit Suisse also seen to strengthen SGX’s capabilities in the interbank interest rate swap market.

Singapore Exchange (SGX) on Wednesday welcomes Credit Suisse AG to its SGX AsiaClear service as SGX Bank Clearing Member for the clearing of over-the-counter (OTC) traded financial derivatives, according to an SGX report.

Mr Muthukrishnan Ramaswami, President of Singapore Exchange, said, “We welcome Credit Suisse to SGX. With the addition of Credit Suisse, we now have a total of 10 bank clearing members that are active in the OTC traded financial derivatives. Following our launch on 15 November, we are seeing more global and regional banks coming forth with interest to participate in our clearing service. Banks see benefits in using SGX’s central counterparty clearing services to reduce counterparty risk and facilitate their business growth.”

Credit Suisse is delighted to have become a clearing member of SGX’s OTC financial derivatives clearing service, which strengthens our capabilities in the interbank interest rate swap market,” said Lito Camacho, Vice Chairman for Asia Pacific and Singapore CEO, Credit Suisse. “By pioneering exchange-based derivatives clearing in Asia Pacific, the SGX has underlined Singapore’s status as an innovative regional financial centre. The introduction of this service helps reduce systemic risk in the swap markets and Credit Suisse looks forward to working with the SGX as it develops clearing services for a greater range of OTC derivatives.”

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
