Clearing services
Fees described into this section are collected on a monthly basis.
Clearing services common to all clearing segments
A fee of € 0.06 is charged per contract for both Internal and External corrections and Internal and External transfers (except transfer for restructuring see below).
The keys for fee distribution between sending Clearing Member and receiving Clearing
Member are (distribution decision is made by the sending member only):
- Case n°1: 0% for sending Clearing Member - 100% for receiving Clearing Member - Case n°2: 50% for sending Clearing Member - 50% for receiving Clearing Member - Case n°3: 100% for sending Clearing Member - 0% for receiving Clearing Member - Case n°4: 0% for sending Clearing Member - 0% for receiving Clearing Member;
this case is not applicable, therefore the fees will be by default the Case n°2: 50% for sending Clearing Member - 50% for receiving Clearing Member.
Transfer fee for restructuring: Transfers of positions resulting from the decision of an order-giver to change clearer, a change in the accounts attributed to the order-giver or a Clearing Member’s closure are subject to special rates. A fee of € 3.80 is charged per transfer. The total amount may not exceed € 300 per request and per financial market17. The fee is payable by the Clearing Member receiving the transfer (the above keys for fee distribution do not apply here).
