Eurex Clearing

Reporting by Eurex Clearing according to Article 9 EU Regulation No. 648/2012 (EMIR): Updated version 1.9 of the Member Information available

According to Article 9 EMIR (European Market Infrastructure Regulation), both Eurex Clearing and its Clearing Members have been obliged to report transactions in off-book, exchange-traded and OTC derivatives since 12 February 2014. Since 12 August 2014, collateral and valuation reports also have to be sent.

As both counterparties of a trade have to report and since common data must be identical, it is important that the CCP and its Clearing Members use the same methods to populate the common data fields.

The attachment “Member Information - Reporting by Eurex Clearing according to EMIR Article 9, Version 1.9” describes how Eurex Clearing reports derivative transactions according to EMIR to enable Clearing Members and other reporting participants to align the reporting. Compared to the previous version 1.8 attached to Eurex Clearing circular 161/14, the new version 1.9 mainly contains updated rules due to new features linked to C7 Release 3.0 of Eurex Clearing. Thereby it has to be considered that these rules will only become effective with the introduction of C7 Release 3.0.

The planned release date for C7 3.0 Release is November 2015 (simulation: July 2015).
