Mind blowing. Thanks for explaining Direct Clearing, Ring Clearing and Complete Clearing. And for letting us know the etymology of the term 'OTC.' On the niggling flipsides in the graph on Complete Clearing CCP has been typed as CPP, in the slide on Counterparty Risk Mitigation in OTC Markets 'spark' has been misspelt as 'park' and 'Credit Derivatives Product Company' has been mentioned as 'Credit Product Derivatives Company' and have been abbreviated as 'CDPCs'. Also, to the best of my limited knowledge AIG was not a Monoline Insurer; MBIA, Ambac, FSA, FGIC, SCA, Assured Guarantee, Radian Asset Assurance, ACA Financial Guarantee Corporation and CIFG were. Please correct me, if I am wrong.
