With this circular, we would like to inform you that the Eurex Trading-on-Behalf PIN service described in § 58 Section 7 of the Exchange Rules for Eurex Deutschland and Eurex Zürich (Eurex Exchanges) will be enhanced.
In the event of a failure of a Trading Participants’ Front End System or another EDP system of a Trading Participant, the PIN service can be used without restriction for legitimation of data entry to the Eurex Exchanges’ T7 trading platform in addition to the legitimation based on the active T7 user ID.
The T7 Member Service Administrator of a T7 Business Unit is able to maintain individual PIN codes for traders of his business unit in the T7 Admin GUI, and a trader is able to see his own PIN code assigned by his Service Administrator in the T7 Trader GUI. When a trader taking part in the PIN service is requesting a Eurex Trading-on-Behalf service, he needs to specify his PIN code before the requested service is executed by Eurex Exchanges. Provisions described in the circular 218/15 and concerning the PIN code, in particular the usage of the “mass deletion” function for traders of T7 user level “trader”, “head trader” or “supervisor”, remain effective. Details about the PIN service can be found in the present circular or in the “Online Help” document of the T7 Admin GUI.
The amendments of § 58 Section (7) of the Exchange Rules for Eurex Deutschland and Eurex Zürich regarding the enhancement of the PIN service will come into effect on 27 February 2017 and will be made available for Trading Particpants as of this date.
