Action Item  

New rounding rules for cash flows Change in the rounding convention for cash flows such as variation margin, premium, position transfer with cash, final cash settlement of options (including the cash settlement of capital adjusted stock options and cash settlement subsequent to spin-off) and residual calculations in case of Average Price  
 
In addition to the general processing described above, “in the money” calculations displayed as “ITM per contract” in the “Exercise Overview” C7 GUI window will change to display 5 decimals. 
This is a change in the calculation logic, no implementation required in C7 FIXML, C7 GUI and/or Clearing reports. 
Buy-Side Trading Disclosure Eurex is launching an initiative for trading participants to voluntarily disclose the owner of end client transactions within the T7 infrastructure. C7 FIXML 
There will be changes to existing “TrdType” (FIX tag 828) relevant for VBAP processing and Buy-side trading disclosure. Current values “1009”, “1010” and “1011” will be replaced by new valid values “1050”, “1051”, “1052”. And additional values for disclosed trades “1053”, “1054” and “1055” will be introduced.  
 
C7 Clearing GUI 
There will be changes to the existing “VBAP Group Overview” window in C7 GUI.  
 
Clearing Reports 
Existing “TrdTyp” field will support the following new values: 
“U” VBAP On-Exch Buyside disclosed 
“X”: VBAP TES1 Buyside disclosed 
“Y”: VBAP TES2 Buyside disclosed 
Currency Haircut File The existing Currency Haircut file with currency haircut parameters and adjusted exchange rates information will be replaced by a streamlined file version in csv format. Clearing Members should be aware of the new report format in C7 GUI in case of automation. 
Product Delisting/ Fair Value Settlement 
 
Automation of the EOD processing of the product delisting, C7 will automatically generate closing transactions for every open position in the delisted product. The closing transactions will be booked at a Fair Value Price (FVP) entered as settlement price. The closing transactions will have a new dedicated transaction type and trade type. FIXML Changes 
Closing transactions due to product delisting will be marked with a new value of trade type (FIX tag 828 TrdType) and new value of transaction type (FIX tag 830 TransferReason). 
 
C7 GUI  
The C7 GUI will be enhanced with the new valid value “R - Product De-listing” in the “Orig Trade Type” and with a new valid value of “134 - CLOSING_TRANSACTION” in the “Tran Type” on all applicable windows. 
 
 
Report Changes 
Clearing report CB012 “Account Statement” will enhance the closing transactions information resulted from product delisting with the new valid value “R” (Product De-listing) in existing field “trdTyp” and new valid value “134” (Closing Transaction) in trnTyp. There is no format change to this report.  
 

Additional Broker information 

C7 will forward the “TES Initiator” information (i.e., the participant who initiated the off-book trade on the trading platform) and the “Initial Broker” information (which is the executing member of the transaction on the trading platform) in the FIXML transaction confirmation messages (TradeCaptureReport) and workflow messages (AllocationReport).
