Eurex
1. Introduction
In response to the Sanctions imposed by the European Union against Russian companies, Eurex Deutschland terminated trading on 28 February 2022 in four Eurex Deutschland single stock derivatives (OJSG, SBNF, VTBF and SBN) on Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) listed on the London Stock Exchange (LSE). Open positions were terminated based on the underlying close price from 25 February 2022.
Eurex Deutschland also suspended trading of additional 11 single stock derivatives (TTFF, LUKF, MAGF, NNIG, N10F, RTSG, SGNF, PJPF, RG2, SGN and TTF) on GDRs on 28 February 2022 from trading.
As orderly trading seems not to be ensured anymore, today the Management Board of Eurex Deutschland decided to terminate trading in additional three options and one future based on Gazprom (GAZ, GAZG), Lukoil (LUK) and Norilsk Nickel (NNIA), effective as of 3 March 2022 at the close of trading 17:30 CET and 17:45 (GAZG).
Open positions on 3 March 2022 will be cash settled using the Fair value method based on official close of the respective underlying on the London Stock Exchange on 3 March 2022 or the last available price before that, if the closing price cannot be determined on 3 March 2022.
Eurex Deutschland reserves the right to immediately take any further appropriate measures, if such become necessary due to measures of the trading venue of the reference markets of the above-mentioned derivatives or the overall development with regards to the war in Ukraine.
Please find below the settlement details.
