Circulars
Newsflashes
The new values on trade types resulting from VBAP for exchange and off-exchange trades (currently 1009, 1010 and 1011) will become 1050, 1051 and 1052 respectively.
The new values 1053, 1054 and 1055 for buy-side disclosed trades described in the release notes are technically introduced for this service, but will not be used since the Buy-Side-Trading-Disclosure program will not be activated with C7 R10.0.
It is highly recommended to test in simulation. Clearing Members should ensure their rounding convention matches ours to avoid reconciliation breaks. For the testing, any cash flow resulting from ETD trades will do.
No, no further activities allowed after the close out take place at EOD on the day of the product delisting. Product is set to "HALT".
Release Items/Participants Requirements
Feature/Enhancement | Details | Action Item |
| New rounding rules for cash flows | Change in the rounding convention for cash flows such as variation margin, premium, position transfer with cash, final cash settlement of options (including the cash settlement of capital adjusted stock options and cash settlement subsequent to spin-off) and residual calculations in case of Average Price. | This is a change in the calculation logic, no implementation required in C7 FIXML, C7 GUI and/or Clearing reports. |

| Product Delisting/ Fair Value Settlement | Automation of the EOD processing of the product delisting, C7 will automatically generate closing transactions for every open position in the delisted product.
