The nations represented in the initial rollout are France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, the U.K. and the U.S. The new futures wrap a sovereign yield spread exposure into a single futures contract, without the need to execute and handle individual legs in cash bond/repo markets or across multiple futures exchanges. The new offerings make trading and monitoring of sovereign yield spread exposures simpler and economical.
