Explore FIA's Exchange Risk Controls Repository

FIA is building and maintaining a central repository of exchange-provided risk controls and practices in global cleared derivatives markets for the exclusive use of FIA members.

This convenient centralized source of information about exchange risk controls makes it easier for firms to expand the range of markets that they use around the world.
