International Derivatives Expo
27 September 2021 - 28 September 2021 • 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM GMT
Standing still is not an option in today’s evolving cleared derivatives environment. Without adapting to new products, processes, technologies and regulations, your business won’t meet the needs of tomorrow’s industry. That’s why IDX — the International Derivatives Expo — is the ideal place to be: an event that brings together industry leaders, vendors and policymakers to discuss what’s “now” in derivatives, and what lies ahead.
It’s time to say good-bye to Zoom and hello to the in-person IDX experience this 27- 28 September. We’re creating a unique IDX experience at our new venue – the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge – that keeps you safe while allowing you to connect with clients, colleagues and friends from the local cleared derivatives community.
Registration is now open. Sign up by 27 August for the best rates!
If you have issues registering, please contact memberservices@fia.org.
