Written By James Davies

QCCP is the premium version of clearing.

When we deceided what to trust, what systemic safety looks like, embedded in law, regulation, and accounting standards.

That it needed to be continuous position surveillance, multilateral netting, novation, rehearsed default procedures. Operational architecture, not technology claims.

We gave that approach to Clearing a title QCCP.

The most visible instrument that still sits outside that framework is crypto derivatives.
