For introducing this FSR, we are extremely fortunate to gather an exceptional panel: •  An outstanding US lawmaker: Senator Dodd, thank you, it’s a privilege to welcome you today;  •  A prominent regulator: Paul Tucker, Deputy Governor of the Bank of England, in charge of Financial Stability. Paul, you also chair the Basel Committee on Payment and Settlement Systems and co-chair the CPSS/IOSCO Steering Group on central counterparties: your views on the subject are particularly sharp;  •  Two top market practitioners: Michael Bodson, President and CEO of DTCC and Craig Overlander, CEO of Société Générale Americas. You will provide us with the “insider” vision. •  A distinguished academic, who specialized notably on counterparty risk and OTC derivatives: Manmohan Singh, from the IMFThank you all for being with us today. As you know, for our FSR issues, we always try to pick up topics which are both analytically complex and relevant to current policymaking. This is clearly the case with this issue: the crisis has led the G20 leaders to commit to changing the rules for over-the-counter derivatives markets, with a view to strengthening their security and transparency. First, strengthening security: all sufficiently standardized derivatives should be subject to mandatory clearing through a central counterparty in order to reduce counterparty risk and foster market liquidity. Second, on transparency, the aim is a registration of all transactions with trade repositories to provide authorities with a consolidated overview of derivatives trading.
