3.   Details

As announced in Eurex Clearing Circular 025/23, Eurex Clearing decided to conclude the final milestone of its strategic roadmap for migration of the Securities CCP into the C7 SCS environment.

Eurex Clearing proceeds with the migration of securities clearing Eurex physical deliveries resulting from Eurex options and futures on UK and Irish instruments, which settle at EUI, to the C7 SCS architecture.

Thereby, the entire Clearing Services of the Securities CCP are migrated into the C7 SCS environment. 

Eurex Clearing will introduce functional shaping for "high volume" deliveries resulting from Eurex Derivatives business, for bond and equity deliveries to improve settlement efficiency.

In addition, the Italian TIN (tax identification number) mapping will be enhanced on Member and position account level. This allows Trading Participants to perform direct assignments of the Italian bond deliveries to the end-client. 

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.
