1. Introduction
The Management Board of Eurex Deutschland took the following decision with effect from 11 September 2020:
Debt securities of the Republic of Italy that are explicitly issued as “BTP Futura” shall not be deliverable under Short term Euro-BTP-Futures Contracts, Mid term Euro-BTP-Futures Contracts and Euro-BTP-Futures Contracts.
Effective date: 11 September 2020
2. Required action
None.
3. Details
In June 2020, the Ministero dell’Economia e delle Finanze (MEF), Dipartimento del Tesoro, Italy, announced a new issuance for Covid-19 emergency and economic recovery, under the name of “BTP Futura”.
This new form of BTP Futura bond was admitted for individual retail investors and similarly classified persons only. Due to the retail nature of the new BTP Futura bonds and small issuance volumes, those bonds will not be included in the deliverable baskets of Euro-BTP-Futures, Short- and Medium Euro-BTP-Futures.
