The European Association of CCP Clearing Houses published a profile interview with Corentine Poilvet-Clédiere, Chief Executive Officer of LCH SA, outlining how she expects central counterparty clearing to develop over the next 10 years and what characteristics CCPs need to remain a “safe harbor” in a more uncertain and fragmented environment. In the interview, she framed clearing as a trusted mutualisation tool built on transparent and stable rules, and argued that the “right CCP” should be multi-asset with relatively uncorrelated asset classes and diversified across membership, trading venues, settlement partners, geographic footprint and currencies. She also emphasised that, given fast-moving technological change and risks such as cyber-attacks, CCPs should be well capitalised and financially able to cover “non default losses”, citing operational, cyber and investment risks. The biographical section noted that LCH SA was preparing to launch an LCH digital asset clearing service planned in May 2025.
