The language you had Buy Side Direct add to section 5.2 their agreement
very clearly describes the role of BSD and their clearing firm:

"BSD is the Subscriber's counterparty until trade affirmation. After
trade affirmation, BSD's clearing firm is responsible for the clearance
and settlement of all affirmed trades executed on the BSD trading
system". (Section 5.2)

The Trading Edge agreement states that "all trades are executed by Trading
Edge on a riskless principal basis". Does this language clearly indicate
that our credit exposure is to Trading Edge (until trades are affirmed) ?
If not, can we ask Trading Edge to incorporate language similar to the
above statement from the BSD agreement ?

Thanks.
