Dear Sir or Madam,
Please be informed that on September 18, 2024, Izba Rozliczeniowa Giełd Towarowych S.A. ("IRGiT”) together with Towarowa Giełda Energii S.A. ("TGE") will conduct default management test with the participation of Clearing House Members.
The tests will be carried out in accordance with the "Rules of Conduct in the Event of Default" available on the IRGiT website. The tests will be a default case scenario (insolvency) of a hypothetical Clearing House Member whose positions will be closed in accordance with the applicable rules. The portfolio to be closed will include both positions from the spot and forward markets for electricity and gas. As a key part of the tests, the mechanisms of the close-out of open positions directly on the market will be tested.
The aim of the tests will be to conduct all of the activities of IRGiT, TGE and the Clearing House Members who create the market in the default event as accurately as possible. Therefore your participation is essential from the point of view of the success of the tests. At the same time, we would like to inform you that the result of the tests will be used to verify the applicable assumptions, improve the mechanisms for default handling and will positively affect the efficiency of the models used.
The tests will be carried out only with the use of the X-Stream Trading test system, available at: https://xstream-dev.tge.pl
