Clearing Activity

Clearing on behalf Support

The term “Clearing on behalf” refers to when the Clearing House enters adjustments to the Clearing System (C7) on behalf of a Clearing Member (CM) or Disclosed Client with System Access (DC) upon request.  

The Clearing Hotline can support with exceptional on-behalf derivatives transaction and position management requests in case the CM/DC users are not able to dot this by themselves.  

If support is needed, please contact us with your request. It must contain contact name, phone, member ID, member name; and it must have been sent from the respective member firms’ domain.
