TriOptima has completed the first cleared inflation swap compression run at LCH SwapClear.
The compression run was completed on 19 July with Euro cleared inflation swaps being compressed through the triReduce service.
TriOptima has also gone live with sterling and US dollar cleared inflation swaps compression in LCH SwapClear.
Clients can now 鈥榗o-mingle鈥� cleared inflation swaps with vanilla swaps by leveraging the new triReduce low touch compression service.
The new service minimises the number of clicks required to run a compression cycle and provides data validation checks.
As a result, clients can complete compression runs on a daily basis and benefit from a reduction in capital, risk and operational costs.
Michael Modlock, global head of sales and relationship management at triReduce, commented: 鈥淚ncreasing balance sheet pressures and growing resource constraints have seen banks increasingly turn to compression as an effective means of mitigating costs and risks. As a result, it鈥檚 important that compression services evolve to meet the needs of clients today.鈥�
He added: 鈥淲e鈥檙e pleased to compress cleared inflation swaps for the first time, delivering this via our new low touch compression approach which not only minimises the time spent by clients, but also provides superior data checks so they can compress in confidence.鈥�
Cameron Goh, global head of product, rates at LCH, said: 鈥淐ompression is a crucial tool in driving efficiency for the cleared market. The ability to compress inflation swaps is of particular significance for members and clients who are looking to boost operational and capital efficiency.鈥�
