3. Details
A. Activation of additional products
Eurex Deutschland expects to receive approval from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to offer trading of additional Futures in the U.S., so that the contracts can be made available for trading in the U.S.
The multicast addresses for data distribution remain unchanged. However, the following changes have been made for the port numbers:
According to Eurex Deutschland's registration as a "Foreign Board of Trade", the above-mentioned products can be offered or sold to persons in the U.S. via Eurex terminals with direct access in the U.S.
B. Withdrawal of CFTC approval for MSCI Korea Index Futures
The MSCI Korea Index Futures will transition from non-narrow-based security index futures to narrow-based security index futures effective at the close of trading of 14 June 2026. Accordingly, the CFTC will be withdrawing its non-narrow-based certification for the contracts at this upcoming date.
After the close of trading on 14 June 2026, MSCI Korea Index Futures contracts will be security futures and must therefore be traded in accordance with both the U.S. securities and commodity futures laws.
Eurex Exchange notes that, in order to ensure compliance, its 8 June 2026 withdrawal of direct access tradability for U.S. Eurex Participants is in advance of the official date of the MSCI Korea Index's transition to a narrow-based security index.
All Trading Participants are reminded that all trading of eligible FSFPs for U.S. accounts must comply with the 2009 SEC Order, the Commodity Exchange Act, and the terms of Eurex Circular 105/21.
The multicast addresses for data distribution remain unchanged. However, the following changes have been made for the port numbers:
