Give-Up/Take-UpWe make it possible for Clearing Members to perform give-ups and take-ups. Certain restrictions apply.
All give-up and take-up transactions require that the Exchange Member and its respective Clearing Member accept them. Members may accept these trades automatically or manually. Acceptance must take place on the same day as the transaction took place. If a give-up trade is not accepted by the end of the post full-trading period, the trade remains in the agent account (A1) of the original exchange member. Deleted or rejected give-up trades also remain in the agent account of the exchange Member. Trades originating from combination orders can only be transferred as single give-up trades. Give-up trades cannot be undertaken for products that are in holiday status. No historical give-up is possible the next business day for products that are on holiday the day before. eGAINSWith Eurex 11.0, introduced on November 10, 2008, Eurex Clearing supports the eGAINS service from the FIA Technology Services, Inc.
