Adaptation to Clearstream's UNO Initiative (Wave 2)

In collaboration with Clearstream's UNO initiative, we are adjusting our processes for the Swiss, US, and Canadian markets. This involves updating the settlement links for specific instruments to a more streamlined model, which will improve efficiency.

Clearing Members are kindly asked to:

  • assess the operational impact of these changes on their side.
  • If a Clearstream Europe AG (CEU) account for CHF-denominated physical deliveries is used, please email your Member ID, CEU account number, and the corresponding T2S Party BIC to uno.ecag@eurex.com.

Alternative calculation for Position Management Fee

We will introduce an alternative method to calculate the Position Management Fee based on the number of "booked Settlement Instructions",  rather than the Net Position Trade level.

This change allows for more precise and transparent pricing based on settlement location and custody type.

No action required.

Optional Early Cash Sweep Service

A new optional service is available for ISA Direct Light License Holders (IDLLH) to set up flexible cash sweep timings.

This feature gives clients the flexibility to receive cash back from maturing trades earlier in the business day.

This is an optional service. Clients who are interested should contact their Repo Key Account Manager to activate it.

New Novation Check for ISA Direct Light Trades

An additional verification step is being introduced for the novation of ISA Direct Light trades. C7 SCS will now check if a new trade can be instructed to Clearstream’s collateral management system (CmaX) before novation occurs.

This enhancement is designed to prevent potential trade failures, making the clearing process more robust.

No action required.

Updates to Report Reference Manual

Minor adjustments will be made to our reporting documentation to reflect the recent rebranding of Deutsche Börse Group.

This ensures that all documentation is consistent and up-to-date with the new branding.

No action required.
