New "SUB" privately-negotiated trade type 

In the near future, subject to finalization of associated rule changes, CME plans to introduce two new privately-negotiated trade types:  SUB’s (Substitution of Futures for Forwards) and Generic Privately-Negotiated Trades.

 The "SUB" trade type will allow a cleared futures transaction to be substituted for a privately-negotiated bilateral forward transaction.  The generic privately-negotiated trade type will allow a privately-negotiated bilateral forward transaction to be kept as a forward, ultimately to be delivered at original trade price, but as a cleared, guaranteed (not bilateral) forward.
