16 OTC FX Cost Pressures Current State of FX NDF Clearing Currently, no FX NDF clearing mandate has materialized in any jurisdiction globally However, cost pressures related to UMR will likely be a driver for OTC FX Clearing rather than a mandate OTC FX products impacted the most by these cost pressures in the short-term are FX Options and NDFs In addition, the relative simplicity of FX NDFs offer greater short-term opportunities for an efficient cost-effective cleared solution Cost Pressure Non-Cleared CME OTC Cleared Notes Non-Cleared Margin Rules Leverage Ratio (SACCR) CVA Liquidity Coverage Ratio Non-cleared margins are higher than CME due to (a) HVAR vs ISDA SIMM (b) Lack of CCP Netting Efficiencies Cleared exposures benefit from 29% lower capital requirements Regulations do not require CVA on centrally cleared trades CCP netting efficiencies reduces requirements RWA Credit Lines Infrastructure Lower RWA at QCCP (2% Risk Weight) versus Bi- Lateral (20%-100% Risk Weight) Cleared exposures do not consume bi-lateral credit lines Connect to CME through existing infrastructure, consistent valuation, bankruptcy remote collateral 16

Portfolios cleared at CME can be netted on a nightly basis during the EOD clearing cycle based on the chosen netting option The following attributes are considered for netting: Currency Pair Put/Call Expiry Date Cutoff Time Strike o o Due to the above matching criteria, the expectation is that offsetting trades will be executed with an upfront fee to account for the off-market strike This allows clients the ability to get the best price from multiple dealers *Subject to regulatory approval 18

22 Initial Margin Models Summary of the CME Initial Margin Model for IRS 99% 5-day coverage standard (7 day coverage period for client business in CMECE) Volatility rescaling to determine margins for a given IRS portfolio Historical shocks are scaled to simulate potential volatility environments prior to generating a P/L distribution for VaR calculations 5 Year+ look back period for CME Inc and a 5 year look back for CMECE 5 Year+ look back includes extreme market events like Lehman default CME offers a shifted log approach where the zero-rates are first shifted by 4% before computing the returns Model achieves 99% coverage with 99.7% confidence level EWMA Historical VaR model adjusts historical shocks (returns) to account for an estimate of volatility over the future 5-day horizon; typically, margins are higher than plain ( un-scaled ) Historical VaR as volatility is forecasted to ramp up and vice-versa Model uses volatility floors to mitigate against margin decline in a low-volatility environment CME Clearing accepts a broad array of collateral for the Customer OTC Account Class Full details of eligible collateral and the associated haircuts can be found at the link below

31 Disclaimer Neither futures trading nor swaps trading are suitable for all investors, and each involves the risk of loss. Swaps trading should only be undertaken by investors who are Eligible Contract Participants (ECPs) within the meaning of Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act. Futures and swaps each are leveraged investments and, because only a percentage of a contract s value is required to trade, it is possible to lose more than the amount of money deposited for either a futures or swaps position. Therefore, traders should only use funds that they can afford to lose without affecting their lifestyles and only a portion of those funds should be devoted to any one trade because traders cannot expect to profit on every trade.
