This Extension Pack, initiated by the CME Group, introduces enhancements to support various implementations related to satisfying regulatory requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act and similar regulations in Europe and Canada.

The MMT was developed through the collaborative efforts of exchanges, MTF’s, market data vendors and trade reporting venues as a means of standardizing post-trade data reporting. MMT enables translation between the trade types of a continuous trading platform (RM’s, MTF’s, etc.) with the standard OTC trade conditions recommended in article 24 of (ESMA/CESR10-882).

The MMT Initiative is open to all industry participants to support the idea of one standard and has been developed by experienced professionals ranging from equity market operators, reporting venues and data vendors. It is intended that the delivery of the MMT will facilitate the delivery of a European Consolidated Tape regardless of whether it is delivered by a single provider or by multiple providers delivering consistent but competing consolidated tape solutions.

On November 8, 2011, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“Commission” or “CFTC”) published “Derivatives Clearing Organization (“DCO”) General Provisions and Core Principles,” amending 17 CFR Parts 1, 21, 39, and 140. This final rulemaking includes DCO reporting rules that become effective on November 8, 2012 and are set forth in Part 39, Section 39.19 of the Commission’s regulations. The rules cover daily, quarterly, annual, and event-specific reporting. This gap analyisis pertain to submission of daily reports under:

• Section 39.19(c)(1), which requires reports from DCOs for each clearing member (“CM”) by house origin and by each customer origin for all futures, options, and swaps positions, and all securities positions held in a segregated account or pursuant to a cross margining agreement;
• Section 39.19(c)(1)(i)(A), addresses initial margin;
• Section 39.19(c)(1)(i)(B) addresses variation margin;

[Updated 2013-09-26] Revised the FIXML Schema and FIX Repository to reflect changes in EP161.

This Extension Pack provides very extensive new functionality in FIX to natively support the ability to fully express OTC derivatives for swaps data reporting meeting the requirements of the CFTC Part 43 and Part 45 rules. Phase 1 covers extensions to support Credit Default Swaps and Interest Rate Swaps.

The Dodd-Frank Act’s 17 CFR Part 45 requires clearing houses, swap dealers and major swap participants to report all swap transactions to Swap Data Repositories (SDRs) whether cleared or uncleared. Part 45 data are to be made accessible to the regulators (i.e. CFTC) by the SDRs. 17 CFR Part 43 in turn implements the rules for SDRs to disseminate real-time information on swap transactions to the public. The immediate implementation of data access for both will likely be portals setup by the SDRs.

The Dodd-Frank Act anticipates that regulators and market participants will use data provided by SDRs to analyze the swaps market. Certain swap transaction and pricing data would be used to enhance price discovery and transparency. These data would include asset class, date and time of execution, notional size and price. Other information proposed to be required to be submitted to SDRs would help regulators monitor the market for systemic risk, but would not be made public. This information would include unique legal entity identifiers and “data elements necessary to calculate the market value of a transaction.”

As the FIX Protocol is widely used for electronic trading and has significant industry support in clearing applications. In addition XML representation is the preferred document format among the clearing community. Thus FIXML is a preferred syntax for complying with the new regulations. The current document attempts to map the reporting requirements of Parts 43 and 45 to FIX in order to identify gaps and resulting in extension recommendations.

The requirements for Part 45 identify four distinct asset classes for reporting – Credit & Equity Swaps, Foreign Exchange Transactions, Interest Rate Swaps and Other Commodity Swaps. This Extension Pack only covers CDS and IRS. Subsequent phases will cover FX, commodity swaps and equity swaps.

The published final rules can be found at the following URLs:

17 CFR Part 43: http://www.cftc.gov/ucm/groups/public/@lrfederalregister/documents/file/2011-33173a.pdf

17 CFR Part 45: http://www.cftc.gov/ucm/groups/public/@lrfederalregister/documents/file/2011-33199a.pdf

This Extension Pack has significant expanded the number of components and fields in the FIX Protocol standard. Due to the number of component and fields being added, the Global Technical Committee had decided to use tags in the 40000+ range to accommodate this growth. Some fields that may be more commonly applicable will be assigned tag numbers in the lower tag number range.

NOTE: This Extension Pack contains a number of fields that will utilize an externally maintained code list (a code list maintain separately from the normal Extension Pack process). The code lists can be found here.

[Updated 2013-09-24] The ASBULT documentation along with FIXML Schema and FIX Repository files have been updated from the time of the Beta release in February 2013 to resolve two specific issues raised by implementors:

Reverted the data type change to EventDate(866) and equivalents in UnderlyingEvntGrp and LegEvntGrp from the proposed MonthYear back to LocalMktDate. Introduced three new fields EventMonthYear(2340), LegEventMOnthYear(2341), and UnderlyingEVentMonthYear(2342) to the EvntGrp, LegEvntGrp and UnderlyingEvntGrp respectively, with data type of MonthYear to accommodate expression of an instrument's event in month-year format.

In the AssetSubClass(1939) removed the enumeration value "8" for "Total Return Swaps" and added "TRS" for "Total Return Swaps" to SecurityType(167).

This Extension Pack provides enhancements to the SecurityList(35=y) message to support the Options Clearing Corp.'s requirements to provide theoretical profit and loss data to their customers.

As the sole vendor approved by the SEC to disseminate theoretical profit/loss files for Risk Based Haircut (RBH) and Customer Portfolio Margining (CPM) programs, the OCC is converting their data from flat file to FIXML. This proposal provides enhancements to the SecurityList(35=y) message to meet these data requirements.

This Extension Pack provides a new SecurityIDSource(22) value to support Bloomberg's Open Symbology (BSYM) values for security identifiers.

While the FIX Protocol has long supported a SecurityIDSource(22) value of "A" for Bloomberg symbols, the new BSYM initiative warrants a new SecurityIDSource value to distinguish between the Bloomberg legacy symbology from the new Bloomberg Open Symbology. The new SecurityIDSource(22) value "S" has been assigned for this purpose.

[Updated 2013-12-09] The FIXML Schema and FIX Repository files have been updated for the following changes: an update to the base FIX 5.0 SP2 (See 20131209 Errata Release Notes); an update to EP105 to correct an issue with incorrect coding of UndInstrmtGrp and InstrmtLegGrp components in the Repository; an error in EP106 was also corrected to resolve FIXML Schema validation issues with components assigned to incorrect component categories.

Section 724(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act inserted a new section 4d(f) to the Commodity Exchange Act (ACE), which requires the segregation of cleared swaps, and associated collateral, pertaining to customers. This is referred to as the Legally Segregated Operationally Commingled (LSOC) Model (also known as the Complete Legal Segregation Model). This extension pack provides the ability for Futures Commission Merchants (FCMs) to report to clearing organizatons the information required to meet LSOC reporting obligations. The AccountSummaryReport message has been enhanced for this purpose.

"The LSOC Model requires that cleared swaps customer collateral be segregated from the FCM’s own property, but permits the cleared swaps collateral of all FCM cleared swaps customers to be kept together pre-bankruptcy in one account. The rules, to the extent applicable, parallel (in updated language) the regulations governing the segregated accounts in which FCMs currently hold futures customer collateral pre-bankruptcy.

Following an FCM's bankruptcy, where there is a shortfall in the cleared swaps customer account due to a cleared swaps customer loss that exceeds both the cleared swaps customer’s collateral and the FCM’s ability to pay, the DCO could only use the collateral attributable to the cleared swaps customers whose portfolios of positions at the DCO suffered losses to meet the loss. Thus, all collateral attributable to cleared swaps customers whose portfolios of positions gained or were “flat” (neither gained nor lost), and the remaining collateral attributable to cleared swaps customers whose portfolios of positions lost, would be immediately available for transfer."
[See http://www.cftc.gov/ucm/groups/public/@newsroom/documents/file/sb_factsheet_final.pdf]

Implementing LSOC requires that the FCM clearing members disclose to the DCO:
1. All cleared swaps positions for each customer account, and
2. The value of collateral posted with the DCO attributable to each customer.

New messages to convey complete match events from an exchange to a CCP. A match event is a single matching engine transaction comprising multiple instruments (simple and complex), multiple counterparties, and multiple trade prices (outright and implied).

The following new messages support submission of matched trades (including complex match events with support for implied matches) from an exchange to a CCP.

TradeMatchReport
TradeMatchReport messages are used by exchanges and ECN’s to report matched trades to CCPs as an atomic event. The messages are used to express the one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many matches as well as implied matches in which complex instruments can match with simple instruments.

TradeMatchReportAcknowledgement
TradeMatchReportAcknowledgement messages are optionally used by CCPs to acknowledge the receipt of a TradeMatchReport. Their primary use is to send a negative acknowledgement to the exchange indicating a problem with a TradeMatchReport.

[Updated 2012-06-18] Added ASBUILT document, FIXML Schema and FIX Repository.

Extension of instrument attributes to support the industry initiative to accelerate the adoption of FIX for Fixed Income.

The Global Fixed Income Technical subcommittee has produced a set of best practices documents (4 volumes), Best Practices: FIX Message Flows and Usage for Interest Rate Swaps (IRS) and Credit Default Swaps (CDS). This set of best practices document focuses on the use of FIX 5.0 SP2+ for the pre-trade and trade activities for CDS and IRS securities between the banks (dealer) and the Swap Execution Facilities (SEFs). As a result of this effort some gaps have been identified which are being closed with this extension.

The quote/negotiation model between SEFs and banks requires that under certain situations a new instrument definition needs to be sent embedded within the QuoteRequest or QuoteResponse messages. The new component LegSecurityXML (within the InstrumentLeg component) will enable sending a new multi-leg Instrument XML definition embedded within the standard FIX definition of legs. This facilitates the cases where bespoke CDS and IRS securities are used in the negotiation.

The LegSecurityXML component is modeled in the same manner as the existing SecurityXML component found in the Instrument component.

[Updated 2012-06-18] Added ASBUILT document, FIXML Schema and FIX Repository.

Extension of quoting message flows to support the industry initiative to accelerate the adoption of FIX for Fixed Income.

The Global Fixed Income Technical subcommittee has produced a set of best practices documents (4 volumes), Best Practices: FIX Message Flows and Usage for Interest Rate Swaps (IRS) and Credit Default Swaps (CDS). This set of best practices document focuses on the use of FIX 5.0 SP2+ for the pre-trade and trade activities for CDS and IRS securities between the banks (dealer) and the Swap Execution Facilities (SEFs). As a result of this effort some gaps have been identified which are being closed with this extension.

The quote/negotiation model between SEFs and banks requires that under certain situations the QuoteStatusReport would be a bidirectional message given the current message usage definition of the message. A new message, QuoteAck, is being introduced to avoid having a bidirectional message in these flows. The QuoteAck message will only be used in the FIX message flows that support the negotiation dialog between parties where the issuer of the quote (e.g. the broker/dealer) governs the status of the quote.

The QuoteAck message does not supplant the use of QuoteStatusReport by centralized exchange quote models, where the exchange is the final arbiter of the status of a given quote. This is a very important distinction being made to ensure that the introduction of the QuoteAck does not disrupt existing exchange centric quote model implementations. The QuoteAck will be used to respond to a Quote and a QuoteCancel message to either accept or reject those messages.

Ability to transmit instructions for specific-lot allocations. Specific-lot trade allocations are a key benefit provided by Wealth Managers who provide advisory services to retail customers.

One of the key issues with specific-lot trading is determining how to identify the lot. This issue requires common methods for custodians and Wealth Managers to synchronize on lots, making it both a trading and custodial reconciliation problem. Additionally, this issue became even more critical due to the Cost Basis Regulations requirement by the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act in the US. This act requires that custodians maintain and report to investors and the IRS accurate cost basis on trades. One of the allocation methods explicitly required by the act is the support lot-specific allocation instructions.

This extension covers part of the SEC amendments for Regulation SHO to place further restrictions on short selling. See also EP120.

Since the SEC amendment provides exemptions to the rule (broker/dealers may submit “short exempt” orders under certain conditions), it is necessary to enhance FIX messages during the trade lifecycle. In particular, a FIX order message must be able to indicate whether the order is exempt from the rule. Furthermore, execution and trade reporting messages need to be able to convey the reason for the exemption.

The rules create a “Circuit Breaker” which changes the trading behavior for a security. FIX is utilized in pre-trade dissemination of securities reference data and market data; it follows that FIX needs a method to disseminate whether this Circuit Breaker is triggered for a given security, as well as a method for a user to query whether the Circuit Breaker is in effect.

This extension provides a standard, extensible way for throttle parameters to be communicated between the exchange/market and the messaging source.

Exchanges and Markets are subject to large spikes in volume from various Direct Market Access (DMA) sources including ALGOs, Smart Order Routers and other concentrators of order/quoting flow. These spikes in flow can cause the exchanges to slow down dramatically once a certain overall rate of messaging has been reached and sustained for a period of time.

Many exchanges provide “throttle” mechanisms that provide a method of slowing down messages, rejecting messages or disconnecting sessions above a certain rate of messages. A throttle is normally set at level of so many messages per unit of time per a session, on other exchanges an alternative method of number of outstanding requests may be used. Additionally, some exchanges provide the ability to throttle by message type or take action on a message given that the message is throttled.

This extension supports regulatory requirements such as FINRA Regulatory Notice 09-54 related to firms submitting non-tape reports. It also supports regulatory requirements related to customer orders that may not be traded at a given market whenever there is a better price at another market. These requirements have in common that other market centers have to be identified.

Within FIX, one can easily indicate the market where a trade executes, e.g. the LastMkt (30) field. However, FIX has no current mechanism to indicate where a trade is reported (aka “prints”). An Exchange typically reports trades that are executed on it. Alternately, trades executed over-the-counter may be reported to a number of Trade Reporting Facilities (TRFs), Alternative Display Facilities (ADFs), or OTC Reporting Facilities (ORFs).

The extension adds new PartyRole values for a (Related) Reporting Market Center as well as for an Away Market.

This is the second extension submitted by the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) to further support real-time market surveillance to ensure that trading is carried out in accordance with securities trading rules.

One of the functions of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) is to conduct real-time market surveillance to ensure that trading is carried out in accordance with securities trading rules. To facilitate this task, IIROC requires each market to provide real-time market transaction data to its market surveillance system – otherwise referred to as a “market regulation feed”. To help accommodate this requirement, IIROC is in the process of developing a FIX Market Regulation Feed Specification. It is envisioned that the specification will be used by the markets to update and configure their respective FIX engines. IIROC in consultation with the Canadian Markets and FPL has chosen FIX Version 5.0 for the market regulation feed. In May 2009, Extension Pack EP101 was created and ratified by FPL to accommodate IIROC’s market surveillance feed requirements. Since then a small number of new requirements have been identified necessitating a subsequent Gap Analysis.

This extension supports NASD Rule 2860(b)(5) which requires member firms to file, or cause to be filed, reports for each account that has an aggregate position of 200 or more options contracts (whether long or short) on the same side of the market covering the same side of the market covering the same underlying security or index. These reports are referred to as LOPRs.

“NASD Rule 2860(b)(5) requires member firms to file, or cause to be filed, reports for each account that has an aggregate position of 200 or more options contracts (whether long or short) on the same side of the market covering the same side of the market covering the same underlying security or index. These reports are referred to as LOPRs.” (NASD Notice 05-22 Mar 18, 2005) Currently, a NASD member firm “may comply with this requirement by filing, or ensuring that another firm files on its behalf, reports to SIAC.” (NASD Notice 05-22 Mar 18, 2005) Each exchange has a similar rule for large options reporting on file. The Self Regulatory Organizations (SROs) that receive LOPR information include the seven listed options exchanges and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). SROs will sometimes be referred to as “the exchanges.” Since January, 1987, the Securities Industry Automation Corporation (SIAC) has been responsible for the electronic collection and distribution of Large Options Positions Reports (LOPRs) on a daily basis. Processing procedures at SIAC have been relatively unchanged since the system’s inception and several systems enhancements are currently proposed. The Intermarket Surveillance Group (ISG), the main consumer of the daily LOPR output, has asked the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) to develop and host a new LOPR interface and data repository.

Thomson Reuters is developing a new FIX interface into our automated Spot and Forwards Matching services. The interface is currently being developed using FIX version 5.0 SP1. One of the design requirements for the interface is to utilize existing FIX v5.0 tag definitions wherever possible (e.g. there is a strong desire to minimize the usage of custom tags). This gap analysis is intended to highlight functional areas where, as of the date of this writing, we have been unable to map our existing FX Matching business messaging requirements directly into the FIX v5.0 SP1 specification.
