Trading Technologies (TT) is making moves in their effort to expand services

TT's recent acquisition of OpenGamma will significantly enhance the multi-asset platform. Furthermore, officials say “TT will leverage OpenGamma’s strong client relationships to accelerate its opportunities in the hedge fund and energy sectors, while TT’s extensive network will provide OpenGamma with access to a larger pool of sell-side bank clients."

Michael Selig became the 16th chairman on December 22nd, 2025, bringing an agenda focused on digital assets, deregulation, and much more. Read Eugene's full recap in our newest "Minding the Gap": https://www.ftfnews.com/caroline-phams-legacy-at-the-cftc/.

The number of firms heading toward a crash-and-burn with T+1 settlement deadlines is still climbing 🪜

40% of firms in the E.U. and the U.K. are expected to miss the 2026 deadline. As Rich Robinson, immediate past chair of ISITC, explains: "As firms began adding confirmations into their processes, they realized it’s more involved than simply introducing a confirmation step. It’s a partnership-driven interaction, and that complexity may not have been fully understood initially.”
