EuroCCP has expanded its clearing access
EuroCCP has been chosen earlier this year to provide clearing services to the recently established EU-entities of Cboe Europe, Turquoise, and Aquis Exchange. This will allow Cboe clients to continue trading and clearing activities upon the UK’s departure from the European Union.
The deal also entails a preferred CCP model where a trading participant can designate EuroCCP as its preferred Central Counterparty (CCP). In practice, if two trading members agree to clear their trade through EuroCCP, the trade will be directed to it.
EuroCCP has signed various trading venues to clear their trades over the past year, including Oslo Børs, Borsa Italiana and Euronext Dublin. More recently, it has teamed up with Tradeweb to facilitate central counterparty clearing for its European ETFs.
Overall, EuroCCP clears more than 95 percent of Europe’s cash equities trades executed on organized venues, but the clearinghouse supports open access through providing three-way interoperability.
