The London Stock Exchange Group has been in the headlines of late for its proposed merger with Deutsche Boerse Group, and perhaps another suitor, but until then LSEG's David Weisbrod says there is much to do in the meantime.
Weisbrod, who serves a dual role as US country head of the USA for LSEG and CEO of LCH.Clearnet US, has been focused on providing more access to customers to the London market and its clearing facility. 
"We're a big believer in open access, which enables market participants to use whichever clearing house they want or whichever exchange they want as it meets their own needs," Weisbrod told John Lothian News at the FIA Boca Conference. "We don't have a vertical silo which binds the participants to use the clearing house, the exchange, or vice versa."

Day trader

A day trader is a stock trader who holds positions for a very short time (from minutes to hours) and makes many trades each day. They buy and sell stocks rapidly hoping the stocks will climb or fall in value for the seconds or minutes they own the stock, enabling them to lock in quick profits. Most trades are entered and closed out within the same day.
Day traders are speculators rather than hedgers. The Securities and Exchange Commission warns that day trading "is extremely risky and can result in substantial financial losses in a very short period of time."
