Liffe opens to outside investors
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Liffe, the beleagered City derivatives exchange said yesterday it would change its rules to allow outside shareholders who are not members of the exchange to invest in the business. The move is part of chairman Brian Williamson's drive to turn the exchange from being a member-run organisation to one which is focused more clearly on profits. Liffe is cutting 600 jobs as it shifts from open outcry to electronic trading.
