Publication number: 20240135449Abstract: An illustrative computing device may include a processor and a non-transitory memory device for storing a data structure capable of being compressed, where the data structure includes a plurality of data elements and each of the plurality of data elements includes a date field and a quantity field. The computing device may process instructions to arrange the plurality of data elements in a consecutive series in date order based on a value stored in the date field of each data element, determine whether a gap appears in the consecutive series of data elements based on a value stored in the quantity field of each element, remove the determined gaps in each of the data elements, and repeat the determining and removing steps until a predetermined criterion has been reached.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Applicant: Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc.Inventors: Suzanne Sprague, Sean Downey, Robert Taylor, Dhiraj Bawadhankar, Stephen Hurst, Matthew Simpson, Frederick Sturm

Publication number: 20240046354Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to improving the efficiency of an electronic trading system for interest rate swaps (“IRS”) by allowing for IRS contracts to be funded in a base currency while the cash flows, e.g. coupon payments, price alignment interest, variation margin, are denominated in a local currency different from the base currency. Thereby cash flows may be netted and offset minimizing the magnitude of funds needed to be moved and reducing the number of transactions processed by the electronic trading system as well as the consumption of computational resources thereby. Furthermore, the disclosed embodiments facilitate entering into IRS transactions is a currency different from the currency of cash flows while eliminating Herstatt risk due to volatility of foreign exchange rates, which allows for increased off shore participation and thereby increased transaction volume.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Applicant: Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc.Inventors: Panagiotis Xythalis, Jay Zhu, Fateen Sharaby, Dhiraj Bawadhankar, Molang Dong

Patent number: 11847702Abstract: A computer system may access data corresponding to a portfolio that comprises interest rate swaps and may calculate parameters for a compressed swap. The computer system may determine, based at least in part on the parameters for the compressed swap, a performance bond requirement attributable to the interest rate swaps. The computer system may compare the performance bond requirement to account data associated with a holder of the portfolio and may perform one or more additional actions based on the comparing.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2020Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc.Inventors: David Andrew Boberski, John Labuszewski, Michael O'Connell, John Wiley, Dhiraj Bawadhankar, Samantha Azzarello, Fateen Sharaby
