“The establishment of this clearing infrastructure, FMDQ Clear, will greatly contribute to making the Nigerian inter-bank market globally competitive, operationally excellent, liquid and diverse, in line with FMDQ’s GOLD Agenda for the transformation of the Nigerian financial markets, as participating clearing and dealing members will have expanded access and in turn, be better able to serve the needs of their client base and the real economy.” – FMDQ

The Nation reports that the company has already undertaken certain initiatives that will ensure sustainability among other things, even as it works towards resolving “key clearing and settlement issues”

The company will also be partnering with third-party companies to, among other things, ensure a strong risk waterfall framework. One of such companies is Frontclear, which provides settlement guarantee funds. The partnership is said to be the first of its kind in Africa which will lead to improvement in the area of settlement finality.
