ABOUT THIS SEMINAR SERIES
The Future of Financial Market Infrastructure
This series of seminars on the future of FMI, hosted by the LSE Law School, was established in 2020 in order to provide a forum for interdisciplinary discussion of the most pressing issues relating to this systemic part of the global financial markets.
Our theme for 2022/23’s programme is ‘Assessing New Developments’. With this theme in mind, we are organising a series of events to contextualise and develop the contemporary debates around central counterparties, clearing, settlement and the role of new technologies in FMI.
