Bloomberg has launched the first interface in the US credit derivatives market connecting buy- and sell-side companies to the two central clearing counterparties (CCPs).
Known as the VCON solution, it allows dealers and their clients to send executed trades to the two US-based providers of central clearing for over the counter (OTC) credit derivatives: the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and Intercontinental Exchange's ICE Trust.
The VCON infrastructure also links to MarkitServ for credit default swap and interest rate swap trades.
