Acronym for London International Financial
Futures Exchange, one of the exchanges in
London where futures contracts are traded. It
opened Sept 1982. It provides a worldwide
exchange for futures dealers and investors,
and began options trading 1985. It was a
forerunner of the Big Bang in bringing
US-style `open-house' dealing (as opposed to
telephone dealing) to the UK.
