Euroclear today announced that it has launched a US Treasury Delivery-Versus-Payment (DVP) repo service.

The new solution is designed for US Treasury repo market participants operating in the US settling USD transactions. The first trade was completed on 6 February 2025 between Euroclear Bank and Toronto Dominion Bank London.

The service offers cash lenders similar operational efficiency for DVP repo transactions as triparty repo transactions. It optimises DVP repo settlement via FedWire Securities Services, thereby delivering economic benefits through reduced operational and intraday liquidity costs.

Repo collateral is held in a segregated account with the cash lender’s custodian of choice. Electronic trading workflows on venues are integrated in to the new service, making activities such as collateral allocation seamless for cash lenders and their counterparties. Voice-only and voice-assisted trades are also supported by the solution.

This offering is also designed to administer both cleared and non-cleared DVP repo by cash lenders including Fixed Income Clearing Corporation (FICC) DVP sponsored repo trades, giving cash lenders a scalable solution to transact in DVP repo. This is particularly important given upcoming legislation including the US Treasury Clearing Mandate which will be introduced in mid 2026.

Euroclear plans to roll out the new solution to other markets and currencies.

Euroclear has partnered with Matrix Applications using its TradeBlazer technology to support the full suite of collateral management compliance and repo trade lifecycle events within the new solution. These include securities settlements, margining, securities substitutions and coupon payment management. Euroclear has also deployed BBH Infomediary® Data Solutions from Brown Brothers Harriman for data integration and custodian communications, via SWIFT.

“Euroclear is proud to bring this innovative service to the US Treasury repo market” said Olivier Grimonpont, Euroclear’s Global Head of Market Liquidity “The service was developed with significant input from market participants and their custodians, and will deliver the improved financial returns and diversification that these market participants seek. This launch plays a key role in our business strategy, delivering leading edge technology to enhance efficiencies for clients through market collaboration.”

James Tabacchi, President and CEO of Matrix Applications added:

“We are proud that our company and technology have been chosen by Euroclear for this important service. With Euroclear’s pedigree as an integral part of our financial markets and Matrix’s accomplished systems and software capabilities, we feel well positioned to provide technology-led financial solutions.”
