Eurex Clearing
Dear Clearing Member,
In April 2020, the obligation to report securities financing transactions according to Article 4 of the Securities Financing Transactions Regulation (SFTR) will come into effect.
Since both counterparties of a cleared SFT (CCP and Clearing Member) must report and since data fields have to be identical (such as Unique Transaction Identifier, Counterparty data, Loan and Collateral data, Margin and re-use data), it is important that the CCP and its Clearing Members use the same methods to create the data fields.
The document “Reporting of cleared Securities Financing Transactions (SFTs) by Eurex Clearing according to SFTR Article 4” provides an overview of how the CCP will populate its data fields to enable the Clearing Members to match the data with their reporting.
Please note: Reporting is still subject to further guidance by ESMA or industry alignment. Any further changes will be communicated by Eurex Clearing circulars or newsflashes.
We are providing this document for the preparation of regulatory reporting according to SFTR, considering the SFTR Guidelines published by ESMA on 6 January 2020.
Besides few editorial changes the following information and SFTR data fields have been amended in our reporting logic:
Loan and Collateral data
Margin reporting
Lifecyle events for repos
Lifecyle events for securities lending transactions
If you have any questions or require further information, please contact the Eurex Clearing CCP Helpdesk under: sftr@eurexclearing.com.
