The amount of money that Ice Clear Credit would have to pay following the default of one of its clearing members surged to a new high in euros in the last quarter of 2022. The change was driven by market volatility, a climb in clearing activity and increased exposures in euro-denominated products.
The estimated largest payment obligation for Ice’s credit derivatives clearing arm rose to €1.3 billion, the most since records began in 2015, and a 49% increase on Q3 2022.
