In addition, custodians are Barbara Novick Rob Goldstein responsible for holding and safeguarding client assets as well as facilitating the Vice Chairman Chief Operating Officer settlement of transactions. Further, there are a variety of financial market infrastructures (FMI) upon which all market participants rely, including exchanges, central clearing counterparties (CCPs), electronic trading and affirmation platforms, and trade messaging systems.
