Clearing & Settlement Accounts

We offer Members flexibility when setting up the pledge securities accounts and settlement accounts that are required for clearing membership. Members can choose to set up accounts at Clearstream Banking AG, Frankfurt, SIX SIS AG, Zürich or Euroclear UK & Ireland for settlement purposes, depending on the supported settlement location for a specific security.

For Eurex Derivatives Clearing License holders, we require that Members maintain accounts with a European central bank (TARGET2) or Schweizerische Nationalbank (SNB) for the provision of funds in euro and Swiss francs and accounts with commercial banks for settling funds in foreign currencies.
