Christophe Noblet, chief operating officer of CDSClear at LCH, says the company is experience growth across asset classes and serving an increasing number of market participants looking to clear their activities. genesis, he adds, has supported LCH in developing a tool to automate options expiry, giving members and clients greater operational efficiency.
