GC Pooling Clearing: Temporary fee waiver

Eurex Clearing Circular 089/22 GC Pooling Clearing: Temporary fee waiver

1.  Introduction   

In light of certain settlement delays affecting GC Pooling Repo Transactions post Collateral Mobility Migration, Eurex Clearing AG (Eurex Clearing) will introduce the following:

  • a temporary 100 percent fee waiver for all GC Pooling Clearing Fees from 24 October until 11 November 2022.
  • a temporary 30 percent fee reduction for all GC Pooling Clearing Fees from 12 November until 31 December 2022.

2.  Required action

There is no required action for the participants.

3.  Details

As per recent communications, settlement delays have been experienced after the migration of GC Pooling to Clearstream Banking SA's (Luxembourg) ("Clearstream") CmaX system using central bank money DVP model (with settlement in T2S).

The implementation of several measures, such as the change of T2S settlement priority levels by Clearstream to be in line with regular CCP Repo Transactions, and the observed good discipline of active clients, ensuring timely funding of the DCA (Dedicated Cash Account) and positioning sufficient collateral on the GC Pooling source account, led to a settlement efficiency that is comparable to pre-migration levels. 

Further planned measures will be implemented in due course which will further enhance the service quality.

In light of these settlement delays affecting GC Pooling Repo Transactions post Collateral Mobility Migration, and as a commercial gesture, a joint and cross-entity Temporary Fee Waiver and Fee Reduction for GC Pooling Transactions across Trading, Clearing and Collateral Management will be applied.

Unless the context requires otherwise, terms used and not otherwise defined in this circular shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Clearing Conditions or FCM Clearing Conditions of Eurex Clearing AG, as applicable.
