Six challenges Eurex with clearing push

The Swiss exchange wants to provide clearing services for new European derivatives trading venues following its acquisition of Oslo Clearing

Six Group, the Swiss exchange, could find itself pitted against its former joint venture Eurex, as it pushes ahead with plans to provide clearing services for new listed derivatives trading venues in Europe.

The group, which sold its 50% stake in Eurex to Deutsche Börse in January 2012, plans to use its Norwegian clearing house Oslo Clearing, which it announced it was buying last December.
