DME announces planned change to clearer of record from NYMEX to CME Clearing
Friday, August 03, 2012

Following US regulatory changes based on new Dodd-Frank rules, the clearing house of record for the DME will officially change from NYMEX to CME Clearing. This change will not affect existing members. Since 2009, NYMEX has outsourced its DME clearing to CME Clearing. The change is subject to approval by the Dubai Financial Services Authority. Once that is secured, the date for the switchover will be announced to members of the Exchange.
