Action Item

Decommissioning of the “Linking before Aggregation” Service

To align with the upcoming EU T+1 initiative, this service will be retired. This change streamlines the netting workflow, resulting in faster and more efficient processing.

Clients currently using this service are required to adapt their processes accordingly.

Adjusted Timing for CREST (EUI) Settlement Instructions

In preparation for T+1, we will send settlement instructions to CREST (EUI) earlier, on the trade date (T). This supports timely matching and aligns with CREST’s extended deadlines, helping to reduce settlement fails.

Clients are asked to review the impact of this timing change on their settlement processing timelines for CREST-related transactions.

Expanded Settlement for Special Repo Market

We are extending the range of markets eligible for settlement via CEU accounts to include Austria, Denmark, and Ireland. This enhancement offers you greater flexibility and expanded settlement capabilities across European markets.

This is an optional service. Clients who wish to use this new capability are asked to assess the impact and contact their Repo Key Account Manager (repo.accountmgmt@eurex.com) to be set up.

New Currencies for GC Pooling

The GC Pooling service will be broadened to include Scandinavian currencies (DKK, SEK, NOK). This allows clients to conduct GC Pooling transactions in these currencies across all existing baskets.

Clients who intend to use these new currencies are asked to assess the impact on their setup and processes.

Adjusted Exposure Adjustment Timings for Non-EUR GC Pooling

To harmonize processing, the exposure adjustment timings for GC Pooling trades in GBP, CHF, DKK, SEK, and NOK are being aligned with the existing framework for EUR trades.

Clients trading GC Pooling in these currencies should review the new timings and assess the impact on their intraday exposure management.

Enhanced Netting for ISA Direct Light

An early novation and netting process is being introduced for ISA Direct Light trades. This will improve netting efficiency and directly benefit clients by reducing their gross prefunding requirements.

No action required.

Enhanced GC Pooling Processing

The processing for GC Pooling is being enhanced with bidirectional settlement feedback. This allows for more accurate and consistent exposure updates across both original and offsetting trades.

No action required.

Alignment with Clearstream’s UCSA ServiceTo prevent settlement breaks, settlement instructions for Special Repo trades will be aligned with Clearstream's UCSA ( (Underlying Customer Segregated Account Identifier) service, ensuring correct matching for clients who use it.

No action required.
