      A new field called SideExecID is being added to FIXML Trade Capture Report cleared trade confirmation messages in support of OTC bunched order processing. Initially this will only affect CDS and OTC FX messaging.
      SideExecID will be present on trade confirmation messages resulting from allocations which offset the original block trade. SideExecID carries the original block trade id as assigned by ClearPort and allows the offsetting allocations to be tied back to the initiating block trade. 
      Please note that this functionality has been available in Production since mid-year.
      The following page contains a sample of the RptSide element to which the SideExecID attribute will be added:

      Beginning trade date November 11, 2013, CME Clearing will begin providing the attribute RiskChkStat on all “alleged” (RptTyp=”1”) “add” (TransTyp=”0”) FIXML trade capture report messages for trades processed via ClearPort. The attribute will be located on the side level of the message with a value indicating whether: 
      1.      The trade was not credit checked and must be explicitly claimed by the clearing firm, or
      2.      The trade has already passed a credit check in either ClearPort or on another execution venue such as a SEF and does not need to be explicitly claimed.
      RiskChkStat Enumeration
      Description
      2
      The trade has not been credit checked and requires explicit claim by the clearing member.
      3
      The trade has passed the ClearPort RAV credit check and will be auto-accepted in clearing.
      13
      The trade has passed a credit check on another execution venue before submission to ClearPort and will be auto-accepted in clearing.
       
      Currently only CDS and FX Forward products are eligible for explicit claim. Any SEF executed trade has to be pre-approved, pre-trade, before it is executed by the clearing member and will have the value of “13”.  All other transactions via ClearPort are credit checked by RAV and will have a value of “2” if a claim is required or “3” if the pre-defined ClearPort RAV credit limit was applied.  
      The change will be available in the New Release environment on November 7, 2013
      The full text of this advisory contains a sample of the RptSide element to which the RiskChkStat attribute will be added.
