Eurex Repo Market

eTriParty

Eurex Repo GmbH offers an electronic trading solution for bilateral repos with standardized baskets and open quote book. Executed trades will then be collateralized by Clearstream's Global Liquidity Hub.

The standardization of bilateral Triparty Repo (eTriParty) allows participants to efficiently initiate transactions and benefit from straight-through-processing of Deutsche Börse Group.

At present, there is no such offering until further notice. If you are interested, please contact us.

Principles

eTriParty offers bilateral secured funding transactions without the involvement of Eurex Clearing as central counterparty (CCP). It provides an open order book and in addition the possibility to negotiate the trade details individually.
