Increased volumes and increased volatility have been a significant part of the global financial picture over the past few months, ranging from commodity market turmoil back in April caused by the rising prices of copper, a summer of fluctuating prices in the equities markets, and the recent credit crunch.rnThe New York-based Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), the trade reporting and processing infrastructure provider that serves broker/dealers, banks and exchanges across the globe, has been going toe-to-toe with these rises in volumes and volatility and last year cleared and settled more than $1.5 quadrillion in securities transactions.rn"You have asset classes that didn't exist last century, complex instruments released into the market and evolution in market structures," says Donald Donahue, CEO of the DTCC since April this year. "There has been change in almost every dimension."
