In this context, the following provisions will be amended as outlined in the attachment:
For Single Stock Futures, the fee for delivery resulting from Futures will be reduced from EUR 0.15 to EUR 0.10 (and from CHF 0.23 to CHF 0.15, respectively) per contract. Furthermore, a maximum fee of EUR 450 (USD 690, CHF 690, GBP 360, respectively) for delivery resulting from Futures and cash settlement will be introduced.
In this context, the following provisions will be amended as outlined in the attachment:
The described pricing measures will become effective as of 2 November 2020.
