Providing investors with tailored exposure to global equities – as well as security of multilateral trading and central clearing on Nasdaq Nordic.
Custom Basket Forwards – CBFs – will enable investors to create a forward contract on a customized basket of different global stocks. Nasdaq has developed Custom Basket Forwards to address the increasing demand for a more simple and efficient way to handle a global equity exposure. Changes in the regulatory landscape put more pressure on bilateral over-the-counter (OTC) agreements in terms of capital and margin requirements. Other hurdles for trading OTC derivatives include bilateral risk and dependency in liquidity provision, decreased price efficiency and costs to enter and maintain ISDA agreements.
