GX Derivatives is a comprehensive solution for cross-products post-trade processing, and helps clients navigate the increased regulation to stay ahead of the curve for OTC derivative operations. GX Derivatives help clients benefit from global OTC reforms by streamlining transactions and optimizing operational efficiency.

“As regulation continues to ramp up globally, we are excited to be recognized for our work in both operations and post-trade processing solutions as it’s only getting more challenging to comply with the demands,” said Naohiro Sako, Senior Corporate Managing Director of NRI. “Both of our GX solutions are in line with our goal of delivering ‘total solutions’, by giving our clients integrated services that increase not only efficiency but overall corporate value. We are looking forward to the future and how we can continue to provide innovative products to alleviate the challenges our clients are facing.”
