About European Overnight Index futures
€STR futures will be cash-settled to the Euro Short-Term Rate, a measure of the wholesale euro unsecured overnight borrowing costs of banks located in the euro area.
RepoFunds Rate (RFR) futures will be cash-settled to RepoFunds Rates, EU BMR registered benchmarks which measure of overnight funding costs derived from centrally cleared repo trades executed on BrokerTec and MTS.
€STR-Euribor and RFR-Euribor single-contract spread futures will settle by assigning contract holders into the related Overnight Index futures at a price determined by the final closing price of the spread future and the prevailing 3-month Euribor benchmark rate.
