LME Leaning On Cinnober for LMEwire and LME Clear

Besides its efforts in derivatives clearing, the LME has already made a splash earlier this year in January with its partnership with a Chinese brokerage. The LME also has extensive plans for its newest initiative, LME Clear, set for a launch in September 2014, which will help foster more sound post-trade clearing methods, along with position and liability monitoring – Cinnober is an integral part of both operations.

According to Trevor Spanner, Chief Executive of LME Clear in a recent statement on the prospective launch, "It's going really well. We've delivered the core code that we are using to manage the LMEwire process. It's based on the same system code as the clearing system, so we have a high degree of confidence on its ability. That has been finished and we've done our internal testing and over the course of this week, running all the way up to the 12th, members are testing their process."

"This kind of synergy with a long-term customer, in which our agile TRADExpress platform can be adapted for multiple roles on an exchange, is a key factor for addressing the never-ending flow of regulatory changes. LME is continuing on its impressive journey and we are proud of our close and fruitful cooperation with this well-respected exchange,” added Veronica Augustsson, CEO of Cinnober.
