Eurex, part of Deutsche Börse Group, today announced the launch of futures contracts based on bonds issued by the European Union (EU).

With the launch of Euro-EU Bond Futures (FBEU), Eurex is expanding its comprehensive product portfolio in European fixed income derivatives. This underlines Deutsche Börse Group’s commitment to supporting the development of European capital markets as a key strategic pillar of the European agenda. Trading will start on 10 September 2025.

The new Eurex Euro-EU Bond Futures contracts will have the same 6% coupon as Eurex’s fixed income futures in the same tenor (10-year Bund, OAT, BTP and Bono futures). The deliverable bonds can have maturities ranging from 8 to12 years, reflecting the issuance activity of the EU.

The Euro-EU Bond Futures are part of the same portfolio margining group as Eurex’s other long and short-term European interest rate derivatives across futures, options, and swaps, providing the market with superior margin and capital efficiencies and strong risk management.
