Repo Trading Facility

The Central Counterparty Segment

Return to Repo Trading Facility List

Since December 1999, MTS Repo Trading Facility (RTF), Clearnet and the London Clearing House (LCH) have operated links arrangement that enable eligible repo trades on the Telematico Repo Trading Facility (RTF) to be routed automatically to CCP on a real-time basis for clearing and netting.

The use of a central counterparty allows participants in the Repo Trading Facility (RTF) to:

  • Trade completely anonymously.
  • Automatically match proposals and orders. Manual acceptance of an order is required only for odd-lots.
  • Clear trades directly with the clearing house thus ensuring that the identity of the original trade counterparties is never disclosed.
Repo Trading Facility (RTF) members that are Clearnet or LCH members can trade Austrian, Belgian, Dutch, French, German, jumbo Pfandbrief and quasi-government securities.
