ECC Clearing Circular 05/2025 | Modernization of C7 FIXML Interface

    ECC is committed to providing a reliable and secure clearing environment. As part of this ongoing effort, ECC will update the C7 FIXML interface, which will enable direct connectivity for Derivatives Clearing Activities for CMs and connected NCMs.

    This update will involve two key improvements:

    • Enhanced Technology: Java version 17 will be supported, which offers improved performance and stability.
    • Strengthened Security: The Deutsche Börse PKI infrastructure will be implemented for a more robust security posture.

    The migration to the new process is scheduled for Q2 2025:

    23 May 2025: The new process will be available for testing in the SIMU environment.
    14 June 2025: The new process will be mandatory in the PROD environment.
