    • -- SOFR Discounting Transition Test Advisory --

      Please be advised that CME has successfully completed the SOFR Discounting Transition and Price Alignment processing for USD products.

      As part of this transition, CME conducted a standard end-of-day valuation cycle under Fed Funds discounting. CME then generated an IRS Discounting Transition Report (IRSDIS) providing the NPV of all trades under SOFR discounting and the corresponding cash adjustment amounts needed to account for the change in discounting rate. The IRSDIS report was posted to each firm’s secure FTP site.
