Extending the product scope. Securities lending CCP now covers fixed income securities

After the first successful weeks we are now expanding our unique service by adding new products. Today, we have added fixed income securities as eligible loan securities complementing our clearing service offering for loans in equities and ETFs. Thereby we aim to make the service’s benefits available for a wider user group.

The new product range in scope includes EUR, CHF, and USD-denominated European governments, regional and local governments, corporates, and supranational issuers. The International Central Securities Depositories (ICSD) Clearstream Banking Luxemburg and Euroclear Bank serve as settlement locations for fixed income instruments.

Live since 22 November, Eurex Clearing’s securities lending CCP delivers significant capital and operational benefits to all participants and supports our customers with the mitigation of their counterparty risk. Our offering is Europe's first to preserve the special bilateral structure of the securities lending market and to combine it with a proven and industry-accepted CCP model.
