As the first CCP to introduce inflation swap clearing, LCH continues to lead the way to even greater efficiencies and capital optimisation.

With access to deep liquidity in 26 currencies, SwapClear users are driving sustained growth in IRS clearing.

Clearing houses play a crucial role in ensuring global markets run smoothly. It is therefore vital that CCPs continuously evaluate their risk practices. LCH views and manages risk through four key lenses.

LCH is engaged with the industry and regulators in an effort to clarify standards for portfolio margining across CCPs and inform derivatives market participants. In this paper, we explain how the regulatory standard of "significant and reliably correlated" can be interpreted to recognise the benefits of both high and low correlations, and discuss the trade-offs between the level and stability of correlations.

SwapClear delivers unmatched efficiencies while protecting the integrity of the marketplace. Trade compression is one way we do this.

LCH SMART is SwapClear’s award-winning solution for managing initial margin requirements, enabling our members and their clients to simulate portfolio risk exposure in real-time. By allowing users to perform instantaneous and consistent "what-if" margin calculations, our clients are able to estimate initial margin requirements prior to clearing.

No other CCP has the level of rates liquidity that SwapClear offers. So take advantage of Non-Deliverable Interest Rate Swaps (IRS)  clearing to drive not only superior portfolio netting opportunities but more efficient onboarding and across-the-board processing of all your products at the world’s leading IRS clearing service.
