In this episode, Terry Flanagan, Managing Editor of Markets Media, and host for the GlobalTrading podcast, and Julia Schieffer, editor of DerivSource and host for DerivSource’s podcast reflect on the top 3 notable conversations of 2022.  2022 came with rapid change and regulation and we felt most inspired by the conversations discussing what lies ahead of 2023 for post-trade technology changes and those who shared their views on navigating the rapidly changing collateral management space. Some of the most influential discussions came from discussing the challenges and opportunities that come with continued market volatility with Derivative Path’s head of business development, Tom Loffreido, and head of balance sheet strategy, Isaac Wheeler.
