Note: This announcement, originally published on 22 May 2021, has been updated to provide customers with information on new partial settlement windows and updates to the "Partial release: Clearstream Banking Functional Specifications" attached below. Changes have been highlighted.
Clearstream Banking1 informs customers that effective
22 November 2021
a new partial release service will be offered to our customers for internal and Bridge deliveries.
Partial release allows customers to release a previously "on hold" delivery instruction for part of the original quantity of the instruction.
This service targets CBL and CBF-i customers with an omnibus account structure in Clearstream Banking.
Partial release is a key component to increase partial settlement usage and settlement efficiency. Today, a customer using an omnibus account structure is not likely to release their instructions to the market until fully provisioned in their books to avoid the risk of short selling and using positions from another underlying client. In the future, these customers will be able to use Clearstream Banking's partial settlement service by partially releasing their instructions depending of the quantity available in their own books.
Via Xact via SWIFT MT530 or Xact Web Portal
In addition to the partial release functionality, Clearstream Banking will enhance some of its existing services:
All the above information is provided in the detailed functional specification document that is attached below.
