Global Clearing House
Global recognition and a Qualified CCP
CME Clearing is in discussions with many regulators throughout the world regarding licensing and recognition
framework.
Regulatory Recognition for CME Group’s Global Clearing Solution
• In August 2013, global regulators including the CFTC and ESMA released cross border guidance and
set the path for mutual recognition of clearing and reporting regulations
• CME Clearing has been operating as a Recognized Overseas Clearing House (ROCH) by the UK
Financial Services Authority (FSA) since June 2007
• CME Clearing Europe is an authorised central counterparty under EMIR, supervised and regulated by
the Bank of England. It is also a QCCP for regulatory capital purposes
Qualifying CCP
• CME Clearing meets the criteria established for a Qualifying CCP (QCCP) in the U.S.
• We are currently working on licensing efforts with various global regulators
• The guidance from Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, along with necessary regulatory
authorizations, will allow global customers to treat CME as a QCCP, which in turn offers preferential
capital treatment of such exposures

Superior Customer Protections
CME Clearing is the industry leader in mitigating risk for customers through the US
FCM clearing model
LSOC Without Netting
Variation Margin
LSOC with Excess
• In an FCM default, CME Clearing will discontinue netting variation gains and losses within the defaulted
FCM’s cleared swaps customer account with CME Clearing on a post-default basis
• By discontinuing Variation Margin netting, CME will better protect non-defaulting customers by helping
them keep their positions intact while porting them to another FCM with as much collateral as possible
• Flexibility to hold excess collateral at CME Clearing, with protection of the client’s full collateral value
• Client’s FCM must submit a daily Collateral Value Report (CVR) to specify the collateral value of each
individual account
Combined Cash Flow
Under LSOC with
Excess
• Flexibility to hold excess collateral at CME Clearing, with protection of the client's full collateral value
• Efficient daily margin process allowing firms to use the excess collateral to cover variation margin
obligations, with the potential to eliminate daily cash movements
• Lower variation margin calls for Clearing Members, reducing the funding gap between Clearing Firms
and their clients
• Proposed account structure aims to let end-customers meet their margin obligations at FCM’s via thirdparty custodial accounts
CME Safekeeping
Accounts*
• Allows end-customers to utilize custodial account arrangements and use assets held in those accounts
to meet margin obligations
• CME, an FCM, an end-customer, and a custodian bank will execute a quad-party custody arrangement
to facilitate the CME Safekeeping account transactions

Swap Execution Facilities
Key changes and challenges to client clearing workflow
Pre-Execution Credit Check
• The SEF mandate requires a client's clearing member to run a pre-execution credit limit
check on each transaction in order to provide certainty of clearing.
• This credit check will be dependent on the ability of CMs and SEFs to validate these limits in
real time. In some cases, the client itself will need to allocate their FCM limit across multiple
SEFs
•
Within the off-SEF workflow, the FCM credit limit check takes place after the trade has been
submitted to the CCP for clearing
Allocations
• Within the off-SEF workflow, clients allocate orders post-execution utilizing affirmation
platforms before the order is submitted to clearing. As a result of this pre-execution credit
limit check requirement on SEF trades, clients will need to either:
•
•
Allocate block orders on the SEF prior to execution
Utilize CME’s bunched order solution to allocate post clearing
Trade Rejections
• Orders rejected for clearing by the CCP will be considered void. Orders rejected due to an
operational issue may be resubmitted for clearing within a specific time period.
•
Within the off-SEF workflow, orders rejected for clearing may be resubmitted on trade date

Bunched Order Allocation Enhancement
Multiple Submission Platforms
•
Current workflow requires the messaging for both the bunched order and subsequent
allocations to contain the full trade details. An issue may arise in the following scenario:
o
•
The submitter of the bunched order (Platform A) has different trade defaulting logic than
the submitter of the allocations (Platform B).
As CME does not currently match the trade economics of the bunched order and allocation
offsets, trades may not net in the Holding Account.
Enhancement
•
Due to the scenario outlined above, CME will enhance the bunched orders workflow as follows:
o
A new “allocation instruction” message will be supported by CME. This message will not
contain trade details
•
The bunched order will continue to contain the full trade details.
o
Platforms must send this new instruction for all allocations, with reference to a CME
assigned ID for the bunched order.
o
CME will automatically create the allocation offsets and onsets once the instructions are
received from the platform.

IRS Netting: Overview
Clearing members will specify whether a client or house account is eligible for
netting, selective netting, or gross
Gross
•
If this option is selected on the account, the trades will not net.
Net
•
This option will automatically net eligible trades based solely on trade attributes.
Selective Net
•
This option will automatically net eligible trades based on trade attributes (same as option 2) and
matching Client Reference ID.
•
This option provides clients with more control over the netting process to address operational and
tax concerns.
The netting process will consider swaps that have exactly the same economics. These swaps may
differ in “direction” and “notional” amount. Swaps in different customer (position) accounts will not be
netted together.

Netting ID Enhancement
Efficient Solution for Customers to Identify Netting Eligible Trades Intraday
•
How it Works
• Netting IDs assigned to trades that are eligible for netting, which will automatically update as trades become
economically equivalent
•
•
Clients have the ability to view the Netting IDs on their Trade Register report
Example 1: Trades that will net due to one different attribute
• Offsetting swaps may not net due to different adjustment conventions and thus, will have different netting IDs.
•
Example 2: Netting IDs change on T+N and eligible for netting
• For example, Trades X and Y have different netting IDs (due to a change in future cash flows, settled upfront fees,
etc.), but these two trades are eligible for netting and assigned matching IDs the day before the fee is paid
•
Example 3: Trades eligible for netting after stub period
• Client A clears two trades (6 & 7), which become economically equivalent following an initial stub period in Trade 7
Fri, Jan 17th
T6 (pay)
T7 (rec)
Stub
• Once the stub period payments occur on January 17th, the Netting IDs will adjust and match on the Trade Register
to indicate the trades are eligible for netting

Compression via Coupon Blending
Overview
• Patent-pending innovative solution that reduces gross notional outstanding and line items
• Works across pay-fixed and receive-fixed cleared interest rate swaps with varying fixed rates and
notional amounts, but otherwise identical attributes. (e.g. currency, effective date)
• Available for testing now and will be live in production on May 19th
Process
•
Select trades to be included in the process via the blending identifier found on the trade register
•
Create a new swap (R1) with attributes such that the fixed-leg cash flows match those of the original
portfolio
•
Solve for the notional of a second swap (R2) which has a zero fixed-rate and when added to (R1) equals
the floating leg cash flows of the original portfolio.
•
Terminate the original trades which have been replaced by R1 and R2
Competitive Advantages
• Reduce notional outstanding and line items without changing cash flows
• Compress trades in an automated and scalable way without counterparty dependency
• Customize the solution to your trading strategy:
• – Utilize daily, on an automated basis EOD, or selectively, as an ad-hoc process
• Achieve capital benefits: all compression fees will be waived for 2014

Coupon Blending Example - Steps 1 & 2
Select trades for blending –> Remnant Trade 1 is created to match the fixed leg cash flows
Step 1: Determine the fixed
coupon rate
o Derive the simple average
of the fixed rates
𝑆𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝐴𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒 =
𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒1 + 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒2 + … 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑛
𝑛
𝑛
𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝑊𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 =
𝑖=1
o Round the simple average
to 5 decimal places
Step 2: Calculate the net
weighted notional amount
o Weighted notional is the
product of the fixed rate
and notional amount.
o Net weighted notional is
the sum of the weighted
notional amounts

Coupon Blending Example- Steps 3 & 4
Step 3: Derive Remnant Trade 1 (T1) notional such that fixed cash flows are identical
to those of original portfolio
o Given the fixed cash flows and the fixed coupon rate (from step 1), we calculate the
notional value of Remnant trade 1.
o Notional amount is rounded to two decimal places.
𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝑊𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙
𝑇1 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 =
𝑆𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝐴𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒
T1 Notional = 46,081,515 = $15,103,543.38
3.05104
Step 4: Create Remnant Trade 2 (T2) to match the floating rate cash flows of the
original trades
o Sum of float payments for Remnant Trade 1 and Remnant Trade 2 will match the
original trades.
o Notional amount on Remnant Trade 2 is calculated as follows:
𝑇2 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 = 𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 − 𝑇1 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙
T2 = 6,870,000 – 15,103,543.38 = $ - 8,233,538.38
o As the fixed coupon on Remnant Trade 1 fully accounts for the fixed coupons of the
original trades, a fixed rate is not required on Remnant Trade 2. Fixed rate = 0.

Coupon Blending: Example Results
• Fixed Leg: Cash Flows on Remnant Trade 1 (T1) matches those of original
portfolio.
• Float Leg: Notional amount of Remnant Trade 1 (T1) + Remnant Trade (2)
matches net notional of original portfolio.
• Gross Notional and line items are both reduced, with no change in cash flows.
