In their session on July 13, 2005 the Management Boards of the Eurex Exchanges approved the introduction of an alternative Permanent Market-Making scheme for equity index options (PMM short) effective September 1, 2005.
The new scheme shortens the maturity range the Market Maker is obliged to quote continuously. In exchange, the required minimum quotation size will be increased in comparison to the currently available Permanent Market-Making obligations. Both schemes will exist in parallel. For every registered Permanent Market Maker both obligation schemes
will be monitored. By fulfilling one of the two obligation schemes the Market Maker fulfills his Permanent Market- Making obligations. Advanced Market-Making as well as regular Market-Making obligations remain unaffected by this change.
The revised Market Maker Obligations are attached.
