14 In approving the proposed rule change, the 

Commission considered the proposal’s impact on 

efficiency, competition and capital formation. 15 

U.S.C. 78c(f). 

15 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act 6 requires, among 

other things, that the rules of a clearing 

agency are designed to promote the 

prompt and accurate clearance and 

settlement of securities transactions 

and, to the extent applicable, derivative 

agreements, contracts, and transactions 

and, in general, to protect investors and 

the public interest. 

The Commission finds that the 

proposed rule change is consistent with 

Section 17A of the Act 7 and the rules 

thereunder applicable to ICE Clear 

Europe. The proposed rule change will 

provide for clearing of the CDX.NA 

Contracts, which are similar to the 

index CDS Contracts currently cleared 

by ICE Clear Europe, in accordance with 

existing rules and procedures. 

Specifically, the Commission believes 

that ICE Clear Europe’s proposal to clear 

the CDX.NA Contracts pursuant to its 

risk management framework, 

operational procedures, end-of-day 

pricing policies, settlement procedures 

and default management policies (as 

modified by the proposed rule change) 

is designed to promote the prompt and 

accurate clearance and settlement of 

securities transactions, derivative 

agreements, contracts, and transactions, 

and in general, to protect investors and 

the public interest, consistent with 

Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act.8 The 

Commission further believes that the 

clearing of CDX.NA Contracts in 

accordance with ICE Clear Europe’s 

existing CDS risk policies (including 

margin and guaranty fund), as modified 

by the proposed rule change, is 

reasonably designed to meet the 

requirements of Rules 17Ad–22(b)(1)– 

(3) 9 related to the measurement and 

management of credit exposures, margin 

requirements, and the maintenance of 

sufficient financial resources required 

for a registered clearing agency acting as 

a central counterparty for security-based 

swaps. 

Additionally, the Commission 

believes that the proposed rule change, 

as it relates to various clarifying and 

conforming changes with respect to 

iTraxx Contracts and single name CDS 

Contracts, is designed to promote the 

prompt and accurate clearance and 

settlement of securities transactions and 

in general, to protect investors and the 

public interest, consistent with Section 

17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act.10

The Commission therefore finds that 

the proposed rule change is designed to 

promote the prompt and accurate 

clearance and settlement of securities 

transactions and, to the extent 

applicable, derivative agreements, 

contracts, and transactions and, in 

general, to protect investors and the 

public interest in accordance with 

Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act.11

IV. Conclusion 

On the basis of the foregoing, the 

Commission finds that the proposal is 

consistent with the requirements of the 

Act and in particular with the 

requirements of Section 17A of the 

Act 12 and the rules and regulations 

thereunder. 

It is therefore ordered, pursuant to 

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,13 that the 

proposed rule change (File No. SR– 

ICEEU–2015–005) be, and hereby is, 

approved.14

For the Commission, by the Division of 

Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated 

authority.15
