Introduction of the Eurex Co-location 2.0 Service and related changes to Eurex Exchanges’ connectivity fees (Price List)

In order to improve the existing high-quality connectivity to their markets, Eurex Deutschland and Eurex Zürich (collectively the Eurex Exchanges) intend to implement two strategic milestones leading towards a state-of-the-art and more predictable technical infrastructure set-up in the course of 2017 and early 2018: Co-location 2.0 and First-in-First-out (FiFo) gateways.

1. First milestone: Introduction of Co-location 2.0
The Co-location 2.0 Service will be implemented to ensure a state-of-the-art and more predictable technical infrastructure setup in the Eurex Exchanges’ Co-location facility. The Co-location 2.0 service will be available for market data disseminated via the Eurex Market Data Interface (EMDI) and Eurex Enhanced Order Book Interface (EOBI) market data interfaces and also for transactions submitted via Eurex Enhanced Trading Interface (ETI). From 20 February 2017 onwards, connectivity to the Co-location 2.0 will be available for ordering via the Member Portal. The production start of the Co-location 2.0 service is planned to take place before the start of T7® Release 5.0, which is currently scheduled for 19 June 2017. Changes to the Price List to the Agreement on the technical connection and the utilization of the Trading System of Eurex Deutschland and Eurex Zürich (Connection Agreement) and the Price List to the Agreement on the technical connection to the Electronic Trading EDP Eurex for a Provider of the Multi-Member-System (Provider Connection Agreement) incorporating the new service category will come into effect on 1 June 2017.

2. Second milestone: Introduction of “First-in-First-out” (FiFo) gateways
The introduction of partition specific “First-in-First-out” (FiFo) gateways will lead to a more deterministic behaviour and will decrease the number of entry points into the trading system at gateway level. The introduction of the FiFo gateways is planned in a stepwise approach, whereby several measures will already be implemented with T7® Release 5.0 and T7® Release 6.0 (4 December 2017). The final implementation of the FiFo gateways is scheduled to be completed in early 2018.
