3 Overview nlike exchange trades and most prime U broker trades, institutional equity trades do not typically flow into National Securities Clearing Corporation s (NSCC) clearance and settlement systems for netting. Rather the institutional trades generally settle on a trade-for-trade basis. DTCC and Omgeo have worked closely with the industry to develop a new service, called ID Net, which streamlines the clearance and settlement of affirmed institutional equity trades by: Offsetting the broker side of an affirmed institutional trade with the broker s net CNS position. ID Net was developed by DTCC in collaboration with its global joint venture company, Omgeo LLC, at the request of, and in consultation with, industry participants, including a working group of broker/dealer and bank customers. The service has been available since

4 Benefits D Net is a service that benefits all parties involved in insti- I tutional trading: Encourages early affirmation - Supports multiple purposes for the affirmation; in addition to agreement of terms, the affirmation supports delivery through ID Net Facilitates prioritization of settlement for ID Net trades Reduces the aggregate value of settlements industry-wide through netting efficiencies Reduces opportunity for fails Reduces cost associated with DTC settlement Who Can Use the Service D Net is a service for members of DTCC subsidiaries. I Broker/dealers must be both NSCC members and DTC participants, and custodian banks must be DTC participants. Although not considered participants in the service, investment managers and their client ultimately benefit from ID Net when participants the settling broker/dealers and banks subscribe to the service. 4

5 ID Net streamlines the clearance and settlement of affirmed institutional equity trades.

6 Eligibility for ID Net Processing ligibility is based on the participants, the underlying E security, the type of trade and the timing of affirmation. In summary: The broker/dealer and the custodian bank must both elect to participate in ID Net The security must be an equity or Unit Investment Trust (UIT) CUSIP eligible for CNS The trade must be affirmed before 9:00 p.m. on Trade Date Plus One (T+1) Also, corporate and municipal bonds are currently excluded. Other trade-level exclusions are for: 1. The first day of trading in new issues and any CUSIPs that are IPO tracked, 2. Trades in issues undergoing a mandatory or voluntary reorganization, or 3. Trades in CUSIPs with a CNS buy-in. 4

7 How the Service Works mgeo s TradeSuite processing of trade confirmations O remains the same for ID Net up through the affirmation process. Upon affirmation, Omgeo and NSCC automatically determine ID Net eligibility. Once validation has been completed, the trade is flagged as ID Net eligible and the Omgeo ID Net Number field is populated on the affirmed confirmation. Broker side of trade is sent to NSCC broker is replaced by the omnibus accounts SELLS BUYS NSCC Omnibus Account (719) CNS NSCC Omnibus Account (919) 5

8 The ID Net process flow has been designed to minimize IT development. Omgeo distributes the affirmed confirmation to appropriate parties of the trade and then submits the transaction to DTC through existing formats and protocols. Upon receipt of the affirmation of an eligible trade from Omgeo, ID Net automates the following steps: For bank deliveries, ID Net moves the original clearing broker from the receiver s field to the Third Party field of the ID delivery instruction and replaces it with a new NSCC omnibus account. For bank receives, ID Net moves the original clearing broker from the deliverer s field to the Third Party field of the ID delivery instruction and replaces it with a new NSCC omnibus account. The ID Net process flow has been designed to minimize IT development. s are provided with Machine Readable Output (MRO) containing the original receiving or delivering broker in the same fields that they read today. Optionally, banks may program to read the Third Party field to determine if the trade was processed through ID Net. NSCC reports ID Net trades to broker/ dealers at the end of the night cycle on the CNS Miscellaneous Activity Report. 6

9 The service essentially separates an affirmed institutional trade into two parts, allowing the broker to combine its institutional trades with its other trades in CNS, while the bank, acting as custodian for the investment manager s client, continues to settle on a trade-for-trade basis. Additional Information for Custodian s: Custodian banks can continue to exempt or authorize ID deliveries before the night cycle as they do today. However for the day cycle, custodian banks need to authorize their ID deliveries and discontinue the process of sending Deliver Orders (DO) for these trades. Authorization (versus submission of a DO) also reflects more cost effective processing for banks. Trades that are eligible for ID Net, which are still in a pending state by 11:30 a.m. on settlement date, revert to trade-for-trade settlement versus the original clearing broker and do not settle as part of ID Net. Accordingly, if the bank subsequently authorizes the delivery, it is sent to the original clearing broker instead of the NSCC omnibus clearing account. 7

10 Additional Information for Broker/Dealers: Broker/dealers are still able to exempt or cancel an ID netted delivery as they do today. Broker/dealers are able to view their completed, pending or dropped receives and deliveries in the omnibus accounts via a new automated output option or new PTS functionality. Deliveries from the NSCC omnibus account are attempted in random order until approximately 10:00 a.m. on settlement date. After that time, the system attempts to complete any of the deliveries up until 11:30 a.m. in settlement value order; highest value first. ID Net transactions not completed by 11:30 a.m. on settlement date are exited from the ID Net service and instead become eligible to settle trade-for-trade versus the custodian bank. Deliveries that do not complete for position or controls are available for immediate reintroduction from the original clearing broker s account at 11:30 a.m. Brokers can update an IMS profile to have these ID Net reintroduced drop deliveries automatically authorized. 8
