Derivatives World London has been a must-attend event on the calendar of executives in the futures, options and OTC derivatives sectors for almost 20 years. As the markets have developed FOW has been there to record, analyse and debate the workings of the industry we are proud to be a part of. The birth of new exchanges, products and cutting edge technology; cycles of growth; regulatory changes and challenges; and most recently the impact of the global financial crisis – all have been discussed and interpreted by industry leaders at Derivatives World London.
At the Eye of the Storm
The leaders of the futures and options industry worldwide have a chance to exchange ideas, put forward solutions, raise objections, point out aspects that have gone unnoticed and draw attention to what their markets can contribute to solving economic problems.
