Eurex Clearing

Change of settlement cycle for the delivery of Spanish shares from T+3 to T+2

Iberclear SA has decided to change the settlement cycle for Spanish equities from Trade Date + 3 (T+3) to Trade Date + 2 (T+2). The change is a consequence of the ongoing reform of the Clearing, Settlement & Registry System in Spain (“Reforma”) and aims to align the market practice in the Spanish market with European standards stated in the Central Securities Depository Regulation (CSDR) defined by European Commission.

This circular contains information with respect to amendments to the Clearing Conditions for Eurex Clearing AG (Clearing Conditions) concerning the delivery and payment procedure for Single Stock Futures and option contracts and Low Exercise Price Options (LEPOs) on shares as well as the contractual penalty regime for non-delivery of shares.

The amended sections of the Clearing Conditions as decided by the Executive Board of Eurex Clearing AG are attached to this circular.

All amendments will come into effect on 25 February 2016.
