Over the last couple of years several ACI FMA National Associations have increased their focus toward supporting the younger ACI members, often referred to as the “Next Generation.”

ACI Danmark focus on all members, especially the Next Generation, as they are the future of both the Financial Markets and for ACI Danmark.

The National Associations in Switzerland, Denmark and the UK are all running programs for the Next Generation. There is a cross-border co-operation and sharing of knowledge among these three ACI countries for mutual benefits.

Together with Switzerland and UK we wish to share the current status, work conducted so far, and the experience gained on a global scale.

Please see our findings in short briefing for the national associations ACI – Next Generation.

We share ACI’s values; the importance of networking, and the exchange of knowledge on a wide range of topics.

The Dealing simulation course has been completed with great success.

More than 30 committed participants completed this year’s ACI Australia Dealing Simulation last week.

The ACI Australia Dealing Simulation is the fastest and most effective way to acquire that invaluable practical knowledge. Participants experience real-life simulated market scenarios over five high- impact days.

Theoretical knowledge can help but practical experience and training is paramount.

The Global Foreign Exchange Committee (GFXC) met in Zurich on 27–28 June in-person, with the option of virtual participation. The majority of GFXC members met physically for the first time since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic. The GFXC meeting was led by its Chair, Andréa Maechler of the Swiss National Bank, and its Co-Vice Chairs, Richard de Roos of Standard Bank and Stefanie Holtze-Jen of Deutsche Bank.

The GFXC agreed on the work programme for the next two years, which will cover the interim period until the next three-year Code review. Discussion on the programme began at the previous GFXC meeting in December 2021, and Local Foreign Exchange Committee (LFXC) members expressed their interests and priorities in a survey in February 2022. The results of the survey and conclusions were shared with LFXCs in May 2022. Andréa Maechler indicated, “Our priorities going forward are clear. Almost a year since the publication of the revised Code a number of market participants have signed up to the Code and the GFXC expects those who have not yet renewed their Statement of Commitment to do so shortly. In order to foster even more widespread adoption of the Code, the GFXC must continue its efforts in ensuring that the cost of adherence reflects a market participant’s role in the FX market and that the tangible benefits of adherence are well understood.”
