The Management Boards of the Eurex Exchanges decided to introduce a new Designated Market-Making Program for the EURIBOR futures. Starting January 2, 2010, the new scheme will contribute to guarantee and improve liquidity in EURIBOR futures.
As a Designated Market Maker, the Eurex Member undertakes to continually provide bid and ask prices (quotes) for a specified minimum number of contracts and in compliance with maximum spreads for a predefined period of time. Designated Market-Making will run from January 2, 2010 until December 31,
2011.
Provided the Market Maker fulfills his obligations, Eurex will in return refund 100 percent of trading and clearing fees for the contracts concluded by the Market Maker on M accounts.
Please see attachments 1 and 2 for the detailed parameters of the Designated Market-Making Program.
Members who are interested in participating are requested to fill out and return the attached Market Maker application (attachment 1) to Joachim Heinz, Eurex Product Strategy, fax +49-69-211-1 44 61.
