This setup concentrates financial risk in central clearing counterparties (CCPs).

INSIGHT

Collateral Transformation Exploits Clients

Collateral transformation means swapping client assets under derivatives without client knowledge.
Clients lose true ownership while their securities feed the derivatives complex.

INSIGHT

The trap, into which all nations have been herded, is ready and waiting to be sprung."
~ David Rogers Webb
