Eurex Exchange: Equity Index Highlights – January 2019 Edition
Date 14/01/2019
Market briefing
The story of 2018 was the long-awaited mean reversion of equity market volatility, driven by geopolitical tensions. Volatility showed an early blip in Q1 which quickly petered-out as markets rallied to mid-year highs. In Q4, a repeat bout in volatility occurred as the major index benchmarks retreated into red territory. Overall, almost every major asset class stumbled in 2018. This was not the consensus at the beginning of the year. Hopefully, clients were able to enhance and protect their portfolio returns by the well-timed use of derivatives. As a result, Eurex volume grew YoY with particularly strong participation levels in our volatility and dividend segments. VSTOXX® futures were a natural hedge instrument in focus. We also saw double-digit growth in our EURO STOXX 50® and Banks index dividend futures where 2018 represented a breakthrough year for dividends as an asset class. Some of the newer products saw healthy increased activity, in particular, the iSTOXX® risk factor futures, Total Return Futures, ETF options and EURO STOXX 50® month-end options. In December, the trading hours extension went live. This extension aimed to increase participation amongst our Asia based members, specifically in our MSCI derivatives suite. Immediately, we witnessed notable volume increases in MSCI World, EM and EAFE futures, as well as the related options, with several individual MSCI country futures also seeing heavier volumes.

European Central Bank Must Allow Full Scrutiny Of Banking Supervision, Say Auditors
Date 14/01/2019
The European Court of Auditors has called on the Union’s legislators to intervene and ensure the European Central Bank allows full access to documents for audits related to banking supervision. In a letter to the European Parliament, the auditors express concern that the ECB’s current position regarding access to documents and information prevents them from carrying out their work properly. Banking supervision entails significant risks to the public purse, say the auditors, but they will not be in a position to carry out a proper audit of these activities unless the ECB adjusts its stance regarding access rights.
