EurexOTC Clear Passes Milestone - Total Notional Transaction Volumes Pass 100-Billion-Euro Level

Eurex Clearing, Europe’s leading clearing house and part of Deutsche Börse Group, announced today that the total cumulative notional volumes of cleared OTC transactions have now passed the 100-billion-euro mark. Since the launch of the OTC service in late 2012, transaction volumes have steadily increased despite the ongoing delay in European implementation of the clearing obligation. EurexOTC Clear saw strong daily clearing volumes especially during the year end, with totals approaching the daily record of 7 billion euros.
