LoopFX’s Post

🔊 LoopFX Co-Founder and COO Timothy Johnson made some great points during an interview with Lucy & Lauren of Global Trading.. A great quote from Tim here.. “If a match is found in the Loop, execution costs are reduced. If no match is found, best execution processes are improved simply by checking the Loop,” “And by keeping banks central to matching in LoopFX, the FX ecosystem is respected and improved for all.” Can't keep it much simpler than that! ☝ #fx #fxtrading #bestexecution

Last spring, after announcing my recent (co-founded) start-up Colin opened a video interview with me by saying that most of my earlier work was still going strong, so "why on earth are you going again, man?". I've achieved a huge amount, and I'm even more proud of the tremendous achievements of the number of people who started or propelled their careers working in my teams over the years. So, at this stage of their career I guess many people would be slowing down, but I have to tell you that I'm just warming up! I get calls almost every week from someone wanting my advice about their business ideas and how to make them work in our current financial markets. I love those calls, and I continue to learn a huge amount every day while I also impart my hard-earned wisdom (yes...I have scars from the failures as well as the wins....). I'm still happy to give a free (but always candid) opinion...so keep the calls coming...but with FastFin we now have the right team to prototype those ideas quickly and turn them into something you can use to get backing (internally or externally) to get the idea to fly. So do reach out to me...I'd love to hear what you're thinking. #innovationkickstarter #rapidprototyping #quickwins #capitalmarkets #ai #web3

I'm excited for the launch of the Capitolis fast-track Novations technology - a first of its kind in the FX options market! This advancement marks a significant step towards near real-time novation processing, enhancing efficiency and reducing risk. Capitolis had already made tremendous progress in reducing risk in the market, allowing for more novations to be completed, increasing efficiency of balance sheets, and reducing gross notional for our participants. We’ve also seen massive volume growth, almost 50%, on the platform in the past year and have added many more FX prime brokers, executing banks, and major buy-side participants. We now look forward to taking our network to the next level by getting as close as possible to near real-time novation processing and completion.
