Episode 20 - Ian Campbell, Treasurer, TT International

This episode opens with Ian Campbell from the asset management firm TT International tracing the evolution of technology within the FX industry, explaining that one of the key changes that have emerged as a result is that firms now have many diverse options for how they want to handle different order types. He goes on to talk about trading EM currencies, explaining that whilst liquidity conditions have improved in recent years the myriad of restrictions and regulations that still exist in these markets can still make these currencies challenging to trade. Indeed, although Cambpell notes that many of the regulations that have been introduced into developed markets over the past decade have worthwhile goals, he also suggests that they have slowed the pace of innovation in FX.
