Societe Generale is expanding access to European government bond (EGB) clearing as a response to growing demand from hedge funds, asset managers, and other non?bank liquidity providers seeking access to EGB trading venues.
The new service will be delivered through a single fixed income prime brokerage account, and is designed to provide clients with a fully integrated offering that combines clearing, settlement, custody, and repo financing.
Building on Societe Generale’s long?standing leadership in US Treasury clearing, this solution aims to support a broad range of trading strategies across cash bonds and futures.
Societe Generale, in its role as global clearing member (GCM), provides non-clearing members of execution venues with access to clear EGB cash trades through the central counterparty.
This supports new avenues of liquidity for a broader group of market participants, the firm says.
Key features of this expansion include client GCM clearing via LCH SA; bilateral bond settlement, custody, and asset servicing; dynamic repo financing; and cross product margining capabilities such as repo and futures.
Maylis Dubarry, global co-head of Prime Services Products & Solutions at Societe Generale, says: “Access to European government bond markets has long been broker-led; we are actively supporting the client shift toward electronic execution.
“By integrating clearing into our fixed income prime brokerage platform, clients can have access to these electronic venues, expanding our US Treasuries clearing franchise into European markets and reinforcing our leadership in clearing services.”
