Haircuts on collateral value of securities
Clearstream Banking1 informs customers that from
18 November 2019
the introduction of the European Central Bank Floor-rule will cause changes to the collateral haircuts of customers.
The haircut of the European Central Bank is one floor used by Clearstream Banking to assign a haircut to securities being flagged as collateral. Clearstream Banking’s haircuts are already largely compliant with this rule but in some cases collateral haircuts may be increased.
