How We Do It: Market Infrastructure and Operations Committee

The Market Infrastructure and Operations Committee, formerly known as the Post-Trade Committee, chaired by David Hudson, was established in 2022. Initially tasked with taking forward the recommendations of the Bank of England and FCA’s Post-Trade Task Force, the Committee’s Working Groups develop practical industry-wide solutions to address frictions in operational processes. It has issued two Standards to date: Client Onboarding: Documentation and Processes and Sharing of Standard Settlement Instructions (SSIs).

“FMSB is unique as Members truly commit to act together to raise market standards in ways no single participant can. The thoroughness and dedication of the Working Groups to find practical solutions to the Post-Trade Task Force’s recommendations is to be hugely commended.“

David Hudson, Chair of the Market Infrastructure and Operations Committee
