Eurex
The Management Boards of the Eurex Exchanges and the Executive Board of Eurex Clearing AG decided to introduce a Designated Market-Making Scheme for Swiss Single Stock Dividend Futures (SSDFs) starting November 30, 2010.
Eurex offers interested Members to become Designated Market Makers for the new Swiss SSDFs.
Designated Market Makers will ensure ongoing liquidity by providing quotes on the bid and ask side, subject to maximum spreads, for a specified minimum number of contracts in a defined number of products for a predefined period of time. In addition, Designated Market Makers will take over other obligations as to the efficient operation of the market by providing price information and be available for additional price verification at times as requested by Eurex.
In return, Eurex will grant its Designated Market Makers in Swiss SSDFs reimbursement of 50 percent of transaction fees for all transactions executed on M-accounts up to and including December 31, 2012.
For more details on the program, please refer to attachment 1. To register as a Designated Market Maker, please apply using the attached form (attachment 2).
Eurex will accept new applicants to this Designated Market-Making Scheme until February 28, 2011 unless otherwise notified.
