Wholesale Trading Facilities

The Eurex Wholesale Trading facilities enable participants to enter off-order book trades in the Eurex® system. With these facilities you can benefit from the flexibility of customized trading and the advantages of standardized clearing and settlement.

Most facilities are pure OTC Trade Entry facilities with bilateral agreement of price and quantities. Block Auction Requests also facilitate the fully anonymous price discovery and counterparty search for large size trades.
