Related Topics

Eurex Clearing has launched a real-time risk data distribution service called Enhanced Risk Solution.

It is the first central counterparty worldwide to offer risk management and margining data in real-time to its trading and clearing members.

The Enhanced Risk Solution is available across all asset classes and products – including derivatives, cash equities, bonds and repo transactions – for all connected exchanges and trading venues where Eurex Clearing offers clearing services.

The new service is free of charge and will allow all members to optimise their intra-day risk monitoring, risk controlling and treasury management towards Eurex Clearing.

“Our Enhanced Risk Solution significantly contributes to the regulators’ and supervisors’ goal of improving market safety and integrity by increasing transparency,“ says Thomas Book, member of the Eurex executive board and responsible for clearing. “Our customers will directly benefit from increased control over their own risk management and greater efficiency in their collateral management. By offering such a service Eurex Clearing actively contributes to policy makers’ goal of a safe and sound financial market structure.”

The Enhanced Risk Solution distributes risk-relevant margin parameters, position information, overall margin requirements, detailed margin components, cash flows, the value of provided collaterals and the respective margin shortfall or surplus information.

This data allows members to perform real-time valuations of all open positions and transactions, thus enabling clearing members to monitor their non-clearing members; non-clearing members will be able to control their own risk exposure accurately.
