Survey claims UK clearing fees dwarfed by Deutsche Börse

Traders of German stocks are being charged almost three times as much to clear transactions as those dealing in London-listed names, according to a new survey.

The study, published by EuroCCP - the European arm of the US Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation - found that it costs an average €0.55 to clear one side of a trade with Deutsche Börse's clearing house, Eurex Clearing.
