Subscribe to our newsletter

OSTTRA has expanded its triBalance interest rate initial margin and capital optimisation service to include Eurex. OTC derivative portfolios cleared through Eurex are now part of triBalance optimisation runs, helping firms reduce counterparty risk and improve efficiency across their derivatives portfolios. The move builds on OSTTRA’s existing central counterparty (CCP) coverage, which includes LCH, CME Clearing and JSCC, and strengthens optimisation across the $260 trillion interest rate swap market.

The service supports all major risk margin models, enabling firms to optimise margin and capital across multiple clearing venues. In Q2 2025, OSTTRA clients achieved record savings in initial margin, with overall interest rate savings rising 57% year-on-year and CCP margin savings increasing 89%.

OSTTRA’s triBalance platform delivers optimisation services across a wide range of OTC asset classes, including interest rate products, FX forwards, equity derivatives, credit default swaps and commodities. This broad coverage allows clients to release collateral and capital across their trading operations. OSTTRA includes MarkitSERV, Traiana, TriOptima and RESET, with TriOptima AB regulated by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority.
