NEX TriOptima, a NEX Group (LON:NXG) business which lowers costs and mitigates risk in OTC derivatives markets, has announced that it can simplify compliance with the initial margin (IM) rules with its end-to-end solution that requires just one simple trade file. Approximately ten firms were brought in-scope in September 2018. However, thousands of buy-side participants and regional banks will come in-scope in 2019/20 as the notional threshold for the mandatory exchange of initial margin (IM) reduces.
