Clearing Agency’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change In its filing with the Commission, LCH SA included statements concerning 1 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. 3 LCH SA, a subsidiary of LCH Group, manages its liquidity risk pursuant to, among other policies and procedures, the Group Liquidity Risk Policy and the Group Liquidity Plan applicable to each entity within LCH Group.

The text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. LCH SA has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements. A. Clearing Agency’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The Framework is one of several welldeveloped policies and procedures that LCH SA maintains to manage its liquidity risk, i.e., the risk that LCH SA will not have enough cash available, in extreme but plausible circumstances, to settle margin payments or delivery obligations when they become due, in particular upon the default of a clearing member. Such policies and procedures include, among others: (i) The Group Liquidity Risk Policy; (ii) the Group Liquidity Plan; (iii) the Group Financial Resource Adequacy Plan; (iv) the Group Collateral Risk Policy; (v) the Group Investment Risk Policy; and (vi) the LCH SA Collateral Control Framework. The Framework complements these policies and procedures and develops further the Group Liquidity Risk Policy. In brief, the Framework: (i) Identifies LCH SA’s sources of liquidity and corresponding liquidity risks; (ii) identifies LCH SA’s liquidity requirements with respect to its members and its interoperable central counterparty (‘‘CCP’’); 5 (iii) describes the metrics and limits that LCH SA monitors; and (iv) describes the scenarios under which these metrics are computed.6 (i) Physically-Settled Options LCH SA is proposing to amend the Framework in order to address more accurately its liquidity requirements in the event of the assignment and exercise of physically-settled options involving a defaulting clearing member during the liquidation period of such clearing member. Specifically, the amended Framework will address LCH SA’s liquidity requirements in the event options that are in the money are 5 LCH SA has an interoperability agreement with Cassa di Compensazione e Garanzia (‘‘CC&G’’), an Italian CCP, pursuant to which LCH SA’s clearing members and CC&G’s clearing members are able to benefit from common clearing services without having to join the other CCP. Each CCP is a clearing member of the other one with a particular status when accessing the clearing system of the other counterparty. 6 The Release describes the operation of the Framework in greater detail.
