With this circular, Eurex Clearing announces the decommissioning of the clearing services for Agricultural Index Futures contracts traded at Eurex Exchange planned for 8 May 2015 after the close of trading. This results from the planned discontinuation of trading at Eurex Exchange of the six existing agricultural index futures contracts in:

  • European Processing Potato Futures (FEPP)
  • Hog Futures (FHOG)
  • Piglet Futures (FPIG)
  • Butter Futures (FBUT)
  • Skimmed Milk Powder Futures (FSMP)
  • European Whey Powder Futures (FWHY)

European Energy Exchange (EEX) is planning to offer trading of these Agricultural Index Futures contracts with clearing via European Commodity Clearing (ECC) as of 11 May 2015.

Clearing Members of Eurex Clearing who would like to continue trading these products and/or hold open positions in Agricultural Index Futures contracts at Eurex Clearing are requested to sign and submit to Eurex Clearing an agreement by 27 March 2015 in order to be able to transfer positions to a ECC Clearing Member or to close out their positions.
