Costs and benefits for the buy-side are primarily driven by CCP netting and collateral efficiencies
Netting and default fund efficiencies for clearing members will likely affects buy-side firms via more competitive spreads and costs for clearing
Netting efficiency
Default fund efficiency
Collateral efficiency
• 1
• 2
• 3
• Multilateral risk netting may be complemented by cross-product exposure netting (& cross-margining) between OTC, exchange-traded and cleared repo transactions
• Netting of positions in liquidation groups for initial margin and balance sheet netting of exposure at default under a single legal CCP construct
Higher netting efficiency lowers capital and funding requirements
Higher default fund efficiency lowers capital and funding requirements
Higher collateral efficiency lowers funding requirements
• Required default fund contributions depend on the risk characteristics of the CCP
• CCPs with significant existing exposures across products under a single netting agreement and strong segregation services tend to lead to lower default fund contribution and capital requirements
• CCPs with a large spectrum of eligible collateral, re-use of other assets (e.g. GC pooling) and central bank access mitigate funding issues for clients

*Subject to an open consultation and final rule making in Basel III
**The Elementary Omnibus Clearing Model is live today and will be amended during December 2013 to implement legal changes to fulfil EMIR segregation and portability requirements. Multiple collateral pools for ECM planned for H1 2014
The UK CASS Omnibus Clearing Model is live.
Characteristics, risk profile, operational complexity and porting likelihood per model
This overview represents Eurex Clearing‘s own models and its view of the model characteristics
www.eurexclearing.com 12
Individual Clearing Model: Full asset segregation• Eurex Clearing launched the Individual Clearing Model in August 2011 and has made significant investments to
enhance collateral management to realise scalable efficiencies
• Legal model is based upon a double title transfer collateral arrangement and security interests to allow Eurex Clearing to deal directly with a client following insolvency of the Clearing Member
• Documentation: Market standard client clearing documentation, (ISDA/FOA, FOA or the German Banking Association, or the Clearing Member’s proprietary documentation may be used in conjunction with Eurex Clearing’s ICM Annex. The client is required to enter into a Participation Agreement with Eurex Clearing. Alternatively, Eurex Clearing’s triparty agreement may be used with any client documentation.
RC 1 collateral account
RC 1positions
Margin requirement
of RC 1
• Porting: immediate porting is available upon default. The client would receive their actual segregated collateral and have a range of porting options to suit individual client requirements
• Positions accounts : Individual positions accounts per client (maintained on a gross-basis). Clients may be a legal entity (for example, a bank or broker-dealer offering indirect client clearing), or the client can be a fund manager, a fund itself, or a fund segment
• Margin Requirement : The margin calculation is performed per client. Clearing Members will receive individual margin reports, cash payments will be netted
• Collateral : A client may opt for full physical segregation where they hold a sub-account at the CSD for their benefit, or a CM can use asset tagging, where an omnibus sub-account which is held for the benefit of all clients and assets are tagged and individually booked for the client at the CCP level; direct delivery of assets and cash into CCP account possible
www.eurexclearing.com 13
Individual Clearing Model: Options in Clearing Member default for Registered Customers and NCMs
Individual Clearing Model
There are three options an NCM/RC can choose from:
A. to receive a final pay out of the cash settlement amount; the liquidation process begins
B. Immediate re-establishment under new relationship (back up Clearing Member)
C. become an Interim Participant and have positions and collateral transferred to a technical clearing member ID
Valuation Day + 1
Assumption: If the trigger event is identified prior to 17:23 CET, valuation day equals termination date. If the trigger event is identified after 17:23 CET, Valuation day is D+1.

Elementary & UK CASS Omnibus Clearing Models• Eurex Clearing historically offered separate client position accounts for position maintenance, accounting and
recording purposes but required the Clearing Member to provide its own collateral to cover those positions. Under EMIR, Eurex Clearing will also be required to record the value of collateral covering the positions separately and calculate a separate Difference Claim. Amended Clearing Conditions were published in November 2013, reflecting these amendments and Eurex Clearing will implement functional changes in December 2013. Clearing Members will not be impacted unless the Clearing Member opts to have an additional sub-account at the CSD level for collateral covering client positions
• Legal model - transfer of title in cash and a pledge of securities from Clearing Member to Eurex Clearing
• Any documentation may be used
• Porting is not likely, but a separate Difference Claim will be created
Positions accounts• Omnibus position account for non-disclosed clients (net)• Individual clients may adopt this model (from any jurisdiction) and
have segregated positions from other clients and gross margins but not collateral (see the ICM model)
Margin Requirement• Margin calculated per position account. Clearing Members will
receive individual margin reports, but payments netted
Collateral• ECM collateral can be held in the CM‘s main pledge account or in
a separate sub-account for the benefit of clients• UK CASS Omnibus collateral held in a separate CSD subaccount

The UK CASS Omnibus Clearing Model is functionally the same as the Elementary model, but the Difference Claim would be protected under the UK Client Money Trust.
www.eurexclearing.com 15
Elementary Clearing Model: Key elements of portability and the Default Management Process
Portability + Default Management• Collateral assigned to client positions is treated as client collateral• Porting includes (i) client positions and (ii) collateral assigned to client positions• The porting prerequisites are satisfied if - all clients agree on a single new Clearing Member (CM)- a new CM agrees to assume all client positions and client collateral and confirms that all clients, NCMs and
RCs have designated it as their new Clearer- confirmation is provided by T+1 at 1.00 p.m.- any (additional) required margin or variation margin that Eurex Clearing is entitled to, but has not received
from the defaulting CM, is provided by the new CM• Porting is effected by (i) a transfer of all rights, obligations and legal title to all client positions and client
collateral to the new CM and (ii) Eurex Clearing making the appropriate changes to its accounts and records• If porting not possible, position liquidation will be handled according to the default management process and
excess collateral will be returned to the insolvency administrator for the account of the CM and clients• Omnibus segregated clients under ECM will not be offered an option to become an interim participant• Separate difference claims will be calculated for client positions (A-Account, NCMs, RCs) and proprietary
positions based on the separate Standard Agreements• Eurex Clearing is entitled to set-off any difference claim against the CM for client business against any
difference claim owed to the CM for proprietary business, hence house margin covers client margin shortfalls (but not visa versa)

Further collateral management enhancements are already scheduledInitiative Description Timeline
Direct Collateral Transfer
RC can directly deliver collateral to its segregated collateral pool at Eurex Clearing. Collateral withdrawals are to be requested via the CM who enters the same into Eurex@X-tract Clearing GUI. Eurex Clearing returns collateral directly to the RC‘s account
Later withdrawalof cash collateral
CMs can withdraw prefunded cash for ICM segregated collateral pools same day until late afternoon (EUR 2.30pm CET, CHF 1.30pm CET) upon receipt of ICM segregated client securities
Later EUR TARGET 2 depositsCut-off time for EUR TARGET2 deposit instructions via Eurex@X-tract GUI will be extended to 5pm CET (EUR euroSIC cut-off remains unchanged 2pm CET)
Connectivity to CmaXfor house collateral
CMs can connect to CBL’s triparty collateral management service CmaX allowing for auto-allocation of securities collateral for their house business, contribution to the Clearing Fund and potential shortfall of company capital requirements
Custodian segregation service(Client Custodian Gateway)
Internal collateral settlement process at the RC’s Custodian whereby CBL opens an account at RCs Custodian. Securities used as collateral (IM) of the RC remain within its Custodian. Collateral allocation will be performed via CmaX. CMs can apply their own eligibility. criteria/haircut (must be a subset of Eurex Clearing’s matrix), multiplier etc.

Margin Components
• Backward looking Variation Margin (VM) that evens daily P&L changes as well as Price Alignment Interest (PAI) that corresponds to the overnight interest on the cumulative VM
• Forward looking Initial Margin (IM) that matches the default management process (DMP) time horizon such that the DMP is reflected in accurate margins for each portfolio
• Risk model for IM is designed to be stable and robust using:
Filtered historical simulation risk factor scenarios (99% robust VaR)
Model error adjustments for correlation breaks and compressions
Permanent unfiltered scenarios taken from stress periods
Liquidity adjustments reflect concentrations and illiquidity of portfolios
• IM is supported by a dynamic clearing fund covering extreme, but plausible, events

• First the collaterals and the clearing fund contribution of the member in default are utilized.
• After the defaulters contribution is exhausted assigned dedicated amount of Eurex Clearing AG is applied before non-defaulting clearing members contribution and remaining capital of Eurex Clearing AG.
• The contribution to the Clearing Fund is based on a minimum contribution and a dynamic component accounting for the individual clearing member’s risk situation.
• Following a realization of any contributions to the Clearing Fund of the non-defaulted clearing members, such clearing members are asked to provide assessments to their contribution.
• Clearing members’ total liability is limited as they have to provide maximum two assessments per capped period.
• The creation of liquidation group specific clearing fund segments (CFS), within the single common clearing fund.
• CFS are determined for each liquidation group. A CFS is a partition of the single clearing fund according to the relative weights of the initial margin of the Liquidation Groups.
• When liquidating a particular Liquidation Group, only the respective CFS can be used to cover losses, unless there is a known surplus from other, already completed Liquidation Groups.

Tagging as a second collateral management alternative reduces overhead & operational effort
• Under the new tagging set-up, one external CSD account* is mapped to multiple internal collateral pools opened for segregated customers (funds/segments) in the ECAG system
• Therefore, the CBF account will be linked to several collateral pool IDs under one CM, by using an additional reference/flag (“Client Reference ID”)
• The collateral at the CBF level is aggregated into a single account, while the collateral is held segregated in the ECAG system for each customer in the corresponding individual pool ID
• The solution does not apply to the CMs proprietary collateral

Solution Concept: Buy-Side Variation Margin (BSVM)
• Offer competitive repo market rates for secured financing and investment of net balance of accrued margin credits and debits (including charges and returns for collateral transformations required to access commercial and central bank refinancing sources).
• Access to continuous liquidity of dealer-to-dealer repo markets (and the Euro System (European Central Banks)) to conduct back-to-back re-financing and investment transactions to match liquidity demands, composition and term structure of transactions with customers; Re-usability of collateral securities provided by RC for re-financing and collateral transformation transactions;
• Minimize capital charges and balance sheet impact of collateral transformation and respective back-to-back secured funding and investment transactions by allowing for balance sheet netting of congruent back-to-back repo and reverse repo transactions with RC and inter-dealer-market participants, respectively;
• Complement the OTC IRS Clearing framework covering the actual clearing relationship between RC, CMs and the CCP with a corresponding Eurex Repo BSVM framework covering the collateralized funding and investment transactions, i.e., introduce the CCP function for back-to-back repo and reverse repo;
• The CCP-intermediated relation between RCs and CMs and, in turn, between CMs in the inter-dealer market segments of Eurex Repo allows for clearing all back-to-back transactions via a single CCP and, consequently, provides for balance sheet netting of the respective receivables and liabilities;

Eurex Clearing Prisma
• Eurex Clearing plans to introduce portfolio margining combining its OTC and listed business.• Therefore in case of a Clearing Member (CM) default the liquidation will be on portfolio level and not on position level in
order to utilize offsets granted.
• Aim of the default management process is to transfer the clearing house’s risk exposure, inherited from a defaulting member, to others willing to overtake it
• The guiding principles of default management process are:– Minimize losses to the Clearing House’s lines of defense– Minimize the effect and disruption on the membership and the wider market
Ensuring consistency between default management process and risk margining method
Guiding principles - default management process
Guiding principles – margin methodology
• Greater capital efficiency
• Enhanced accuracy
• Increased robustness
• Consistent framework
• More flexibility
• More efficient risk aggregation across listed and OTC products
• The new method captures more risk factors and better reflects true risks
• Designed to avoid pro-cyclical margin requirements
• Consistent risk and default management framework for listed and OTC products
• Broader range of instruments covered with faster to time-to-market

High-level properties of the Eurex Clearing Prisma margin methodology
• Filtered historical simulation scenarios - volatility filtered and rescaled scenarios from a rolling time window of the previous 750 business days.
• Stress period historical simulation scenarios - 250 permanent unfiltered scenarios of the most volatile periods within all historical data to ensure adequate flooring and reduced cyclicality
A high effective confidence level of 99.6 percent is achieved, compared to a confidence level of 99.8 percent in a normal distribution robust VaR approach.
• Concentration and illiquidity effects are captured• Market data inputs and resulting mark-to-market values and risk margins are monitored intraday• Multi-curve-valuation uses bootstrapping with OIS-based discounting and separate curves per underlying reset frequency• Curve inputs are LIBOR/EURIBOR rates, overnight index fixings, FRAs, tenor basis swaps and par swap rates with
maturities of up to 50 years in EUR, USD and GBP and 30 years in CHF
• Risk-adequate filtered historical VaR margin methodology
• Full transparency on Eurex Clearing Prisma
• Lookback: over previous 750 days + 250 stressed period days
• Liquidation period: 5 days
• Robust VaR (scaling from 95 percent to 99 percent quantile with fat-tailed t-student distribution) as basis for margin.
• EMWA volatility filtering with λ = 0.90 for 5-day returns.
• The model captures all material risk factors - positions in the portfolio are mapped to the exhaustive set of the relevant risk factors.
• Scenarios for risk factors are constructed in a way to ensure robust forward looking properties and stability of the model, based on the long look back, effectively covering 10 years of history.
Initial Margin = Max (Market risk + correlation break adjustment, scaled stressed period VaR) + liquidity adjustment

EurexOTC IRS Clear MarginCalculator
Simulation environment – It is possible for CMs and their customers to load trades into MarkitWire UAT and submit them for clearing, once cleared they will be run through the margin calculation process and receive margin reports.
Weekly margin calculation – CMs and clients can submit portfolios of IRS and listed products. Inputs are in a predefined excel format and submitted via email. The process is weekly with inputs to be received on Thursday by 5 pm CET.
Two methods currently available to estimate margin amounts for OTC IRS
• Allow Non-Members to access the Web GUI • CMs and RCs can retrieve cleared trades to perform what-if analysis • Develop an API to allow Members to submit portfolio for calculation • Additional outputs • Save portfolios in the GUI to rerun / edit in future
• Web GUI for existing CMs only - based on the EurexOTC Clear GUI • A spreadsheet upload with a predefined format and a limited set of required and optional
fields • Validation of the data entered and enrichment • Submit a portfolio for margin calculation • Portfolio will use up-to-date market data • Outputs including VM, IM plus components and by trade MTM will be returned to the GUI
• Phase one (now live)
•Phase two
• Further enhancements for margin calculation
www.eurexclearing.com
Cross Margin will deliver significant capital and funding benefits on go-live in May 2014
• In order to help Clearing Members and their clients to analyse cross margining benefits already before the implementation of Release 2.0, Eurex Clearing offers to carry out individual calculations for potential users of cross margining, based on the Prisma Risk Evaluation Prototype (PREP)
• For the PREP service, Members may send a mixed portfolio of listed and OTC products.
• PREP is capable of calculating initial margin figures for interest rate portfolios consisting of interest rate futures, options and interest rate swaps (including the product scope of Prisma release 1)
• Send the portfolio details via email to the dedicated e-mail address [email protected]

Introduction
Within Eurex Clearing Prisma a revised framework for the Default Management Process (DMP) launched on 13 November 2012
• Eurex Clearing has designed a revised DMP and extensively discussed it with the market participants
• The purpose of the revised DMP is to rebalance the clearing house by transferring the positions, inherited from a defaulting member, to others willing to take it over
• The new DMP is aligned with the new margin methodology and introduces five central components:
− Liquidation groups compile products which can be liquidated jointly at the same point in time i.e. complete liquidation group can be auctioned, hedged by Eurex Clearing and priced by clearing members in a reasonable period of time
− Each liquidation group will be handled separately in case of default (however, Eurex Clearing reserves the rightto jointly liquidate different liquidation groups if a joint liquidation is risk reducing)
− The DMP as well as the utilization of the Clearing Fund is conducted along the pre-defined liquidation groups.This creates liquidation group specific Clearing Fund Segments (CFS) within the common Clearing Fund.
− Default Management Committees (DMCs) made up of proven industry experts are setup to advise, assistand provide recommendations to Eurex Clearing during a default situation and on an ad-hoc basis.
− The main process component is an auction ensuring that Eurex Clearing is able to quickly establish a fairprice for the portfolios and to transfer them to buyers while minimizing market impact. NCMs, RCs and clients may participate in the auction in consent with their Clearing Members
www.eurexclearing.com
Eurex Clearing assigns products according pre-defined criteriaLiquidation group criteria
54
• Only products which can be hedged together are in one liquidation group:− Positions in one liquidation group can be stabilized in case of a default by means of a
common pre-defined hedging strategy− Hedge-ability will be validated in regular default simulations and internal periodic reviews
Hedge-ability
• Products within a liquidation group allow for objective proximity:− Proximate products have a set of common risk factors
− Proximity represents market standard, regulatory and business understanding
• Products in one liquidation group follow the same liquidation process:− Only products which can be auctioned together are grouped in one liquidation group− Products with deviating liquidation procedures need to be assigned to separate
liquidation groups
Liquidation process
Proximity
Price-ability
• The liquidation group can be priced by the market participants:− Clearing Members are able to price all products the liquidation group in a certain period of
time− Price-ability will be validated in regular default simulations together with all clearing members

• Eurex Clearing provides a multi-level security system − First the collaterals and the Clearing Fund contribution of the member in
default are utilized.− After the defaulters contribution is exhausted assigned reserves of
Eurex Clearing are applied before non-defaulting clearing members contribution and Liable Equity of Eurex Clearing.
• The contribution to the Clearing Fund is based on a minimum contribution and a dynamic component accounting for the individual clearing member’s risk situation
• There is one segmented Clearing Fund for listed and OTC business (except CDS which is covered via a separate Clearing Fund)
• Following a realization of any contributions to the Clearing Fund of the non-defaulted clearing members, such clearing members are asked to provide assessments to their contribution
• Clearing members’ total liability is however limited as they have the right to withdraw from the clearing house
Eurex Clearing’s guiding principle in a default situation is to minimize the effect on the Lines of Defense and stabilize the markets

With introduction of the new process a segmentation of the clearing fund along liquidation groups is introducedIntroduction Clearing Fund segmentation• With introduction of the new DMP, the segmentation of one clearing fund will be introduced. This creates liquidation
group specific Clearing Fund Segments (CFS), within the single common Clearing Fund.
• A CFS is determined for each liquidation group, which is a partition of the single Clearing Fund according to the relative weights of the Initial Margin of the liquidation groups
• The clearing member’s contribution to the clearing fund does not change compared to today
• The total clearing fund of the CCP is the sum of these segments
• In contrast to the mutualizing clearing fund concept, when liquidating a particular liquidation group, only the respective CFS can be used to cover losses, unless there is a known surplus from other, already completed liquidation groups
ExampleAssuming that the defaulted clearing member (“DM”) was active in two liquidationgroups:
− the fixed income− the equity liquidation group
When starting the liquidation of the fixed income liquidation group, the liquidationof the equity liquidation group has already been finalized without using anyassigned security layers
