We facilitate position transfers both within a single member and between members.

Position account transfers within a member

Members can transfer positions between their accounts. The transfers can take place only between agent and proprietary accounts.

Position account transfers are possible during the pre-trading period, opening period, trading period and the post-trading full period. Exercised or assigned positions cannot be transferred.

Partial position transfers between different members

In addition, position transfers between different members (not Market Maker positions) are allowed from pre-trading until the end of the post-trading full period. Members can transfer positions via the real-time position transfer facility, which enables positions to be transferred real-time, or the classic position transfer, where positions are transferred during the state change to post-restricted.

Partial position transfers on positions in futures or options products, where the premium is settled futures-style, are executed with the previous day’s settlement price.This is done, irrespective of whether the transferred positions result from transactions of the previous business day or the current business day.

Partial position transfers for newly created series will be rejected. The member will be able to enter a give-up/take-up transaction instead.

Position transfers with cash

Eurex Clearing allows members to make position transfers with cash. These position transfers can be entered and confirmed by the parties involved during the pre-trading, trading, fast-market and post-trading full periods. The cash amounts are in the same currency as corresponding products.

Fees will be charged to Clearing Members that use this additional Eurex service. They are calculated per transfer, and are independent of the number of transferred contracts or the transferred cash amount.
