Auto-repay of clearing currency
Auto-repay of excess cash collateral in the nominated clearing currency is available at the individual pool level. If auto-repay is switched on then all excess cash will be automatically credited back to the Clearing Member's main account in the morning as part of the end of day process. If not selected, then all excess collateral will stay at the segregated pool until a withdrawal is requested.
The excess variation margin is always automatically returned to the Clearing Member's cash account after any potential offsets against initial margin shortfalls.
