Deutsche
Börse and Eurex welcome the communication issued by the EU Commission
entitled "Ensuring Efficient, Safe and Sound Derivatives Markets:
Future Policy Actions". Both companies support the EU Commission's
objective to reduce systemic risks in the OTC derivatives market in
order to increase the stability of the market with the proposed
measures. Effective risk management and improved transparency are
essential elements to strengthen the safety and soundness of the
current market organization.
With their expertise as an operator of exchanges and of Europe's largest clearinghouse Deutsche Börse and Eurex want to actively support the EU Commission in implementing its proposals.
The communication finalises the consultation process towards a future regulation of OTC derivatives markets in the European Union and states the proposals of the EU Commission for 2010.
Deutsche Börse published its proposals for a market structure with improved safety and integrity at the beginning of September 2009 in its White Paper entitled "The Global Derivatives Market – A Blueprint for Market Safety and Integrity". The paper is available here.
