Bond Trading to Restart on Xetra

October 6, 2010--As of Monday, 11 October, around 700 corporate bonds will again be tradable via the fully electronic trading system Xetra. Due to an interim injunction issued by the Frankfurt Regional Court on 5 January, the securities had to be suspended from Xetra trading. Following the court hearing on 5 October, the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt lifted the interim injunction issued by the Frankfurt Regional Court.

Deutsche Börse introduced the specialist model trading around 700 bonds on Xetra on 1 December 2009. This trading model combines the advantages of fully electronic trading with the advantages of specialist support. Two trading participants who had not qualified for the function of Xetra specialist in the performance-related selection procedure, obtained an interim injunction against bond trading on Xetra from the Frankfurt Regional Court at the end of 2009. Deutsche Börse's position was not heard at that time.

The aim of the selection process, which was made on the basis of set criteria, was to offer investors high price quality, low costs and a high execution quality of their orders. With its fully electronic trading platform Xetra, Deutsche Börse aims to offer investors from across Europe best prices and comprehensive service while further developing its competitive position. Around 250 banks and brokerage firms from 19 countries are connected to Xetra.

Britain to introduce EU 'sovereignty clause'

October 6, 2010--Britain's government said Wednesday it will pass a new law to protect the sovereignty of the country's parliament over the European Union before the end of the year.

Foreign Secretary William Hague said the move would "reaffirm once and for all the sovereignty of our ancient parliament" in a speech to the Conservative party conference in Birmingham, central England.

Ministers also intend to legislate so that a referendum must be held before any further powers can be transferred from Britain to the EU.

Amundi ETF announces the listing of two new ETFs on NYSE Euronext Paris

October 5, 2010--Amundi ETF is pursuing its development by listing two new ETFs on NYSE Euronext Paris.
This new listing comprises two ETFs with the lowest TER (Total Expense Ratio) on the market:*
An ETF providing investors with exposure to around 20 stocks in the European energy sector through a single transaction. This product replicates the MSCI Europe Energy® index as closely as possible whether the trend is rising or falling.

The Amundi ETF product range now provides investors with exposure to the main MSCI sectors in Europe.

An ETF replicating as closely as possible the EuroMTS AAA Government® index whether the trend is rising or falling. Revised on a monthly basis, this index is composed of debt securities issued by the euro zone member states with at least three ratings equivalent to “AAA” (or an equivalent rating to S&P, Moody's and Fitch).

Following the recent launch of an ETF tracking the ex AAA GOVT BOND EuroMTS® index, this product completes the Amundi ETF fixed income product range. Investors now have access to simple tools for their strategic asset allocation whatever their views on the outlook for euro zone bond markets.

Valérie Baudson, Managing Director of Amundi ETF comments: “We remain determined to continue developing our product range at competitive prices. This launch coincides with Amundi ETF reaching the €5 billion mark in AUM, demonstrating the growing confidence of investors in our business model.”

Thierry Ancona, Head of Client Global Coverage, Executive Vice President, CA Cheuvreux, adds: “The launch of these two new ETFs confirms the ambition of the Crédit Agricole group to increase its presence in an ETF market experiencing strong growth. The position of CA Cheuvreux on NYSE Euronext in Paris alongside international institutional investors is an additional asset that contributes to our strategy.”
