LCH.Clearnet has expanded the range of currencies cleared through its FX clearing service ForexClear. The eleven major currencies now available enable 95 percent of the non-deliverable forward market to be cleared.
The currencies now available are: Brazilian real, Russian rouble, Indian rupee, Chilean peso, Chinese yen, South Korean won, Colombian peso, Indonesian rupiah, Malaysian ringgit, Philippine peso and Taiwan dollar.
The service’s client clearing business is set to launch later this year.
