What is FCR 

FCR provides a golden source repository for all fees and commissions associated with ETD activity.  The tool supports single-source association of schedules with Give-Up Agreements, and subsequent agreement amendments and schedule synching as source rate schedules are updated.  

Who can use it?

The service is designed to allow both buy-side and sell-side industry participants to use the platform. FCR users can, depending on their service level, publish schedules to counterparties and approve those sent to them. Any Full Service platform user has access to the RateSync functionality that enables the addition of brokerage rate schedules to identified give-up agreements.
