CCP-cleared repo trading in US shares from 27 December

From 27 December 2021, repurchase transactions with the central counterparty (CCP) in US shares will be restricted again as follows for the holder recording period:

- repo transactions with the CCP settled over the record date are prohibited,

- short selling before the record date is prohibited,

- the range of price limits is limited at +/-20% before the record date.

The above-mentioned restrictions will remain in effect until 100% income is paid and the relevant amendments to the Clearing Rules are introduced tentatively in January 2022.
