Postponed - Fee Multiplier Supported in CME STP and CME STP FIX

The support of Fee Multiplier at the Trade Capture Report level to facilitate automation of a tiered fee schedule previously scheduled for Sunday, March 31 (trade date Monday, April 1), has been postponed. New launch dates for New Release and Production will be announced in future CME STP Notices.

This enhancement supports the extension of the listing schedule for futures contracts on products such as the S&P 500 Total Return Index, where the tiered fee schedule maturities in the first two years (zero to 23 months out) are charged a base rate, maturities in the next three years (24 to 59 months out) are charged twice the base rate, and the furthest out maturities (60 months and more) are charged four times the base rate.
