NYSE Liffe Clear

In October 2009  a new clearing arrangement between NYSE Liffe and LCH.Clearnet Ltd was introduced, with NYSE Liffe becoming the central counterparty for London-based NYSE Liffe contracts. LCH.Clearnet Ltd continues to provide NYSE Liffe with its proven risk management services and the existing clearing guarantee; and  continues to run its normal day to day operational clearing processes for NYSE Liffe.  In the event of a default, LCH.Clearnet will become the counterparty and will be fully responsible for the management of the default.
