Eurex Exchange’s new trading architecture: Revised simulation planning

In the latest testing of Eurex Exchange’s new trading architecture we have experienced issues whilst integrating important system components for the simulation environment. Eurex has therefore decided not to proceed with the pre-simulation phase for Eurex Exchange’s new trading architecture, which was originally planned for 3 September 2012. Instead, the simulation phase will commence with the regular simulation on 18 October 2012.

The planned date for the production start on 3 December 2012 remains unchanged. The product migration strategy will be modified in accordance with the reduced simulation period and a significant reduction of the number of active products available on the new trading architecture for the start of production is envisaged. The new product migration strategy will be communicated on 4 September 2012.
