Enhancements to impact will include the BOE’s Sterling Overnight Index Average (SONIA) rate and other global rate changes, replacing LIBOR as they continue to emerge.
The enhancements in this suite will apply to the following interest calculations:

Industry changes to the Exchange-Traded Funds (ETF) primary market clearing process were introduced by NSCC in Phase 1 for Equity products. Phase 1 changes included processing of multiple basket types, added flexibility for order customization and the addition of accrued interest. In Phase 1, ETF Participants were still able to submit trades via DTCC Ex-Clearing.
Phase 2 was implemented in April for equity products. In this phase, ETF Participants are required to use NSCC’s CNS processing for settlement of ETF baskets. ETF Agents now submit via RTTM on behalf of the Participants, and settlement occurs via CNS, rather than via DTCC ex-clearing. This change has been mandatory for Equity Products since April 23, 2021.
As part of Phase 2, iProducts/iShares has mandated that predetermined Fixed Income Funds will only be available for trading via CNS. This is not an industry-mandated change for Fixed Income, but it will affect any Broadridge client that trades with any of the iProducts/iShares funds. impact will create CNS obligations for ETF trades submitted by the ETF Agent. The launch date for iProducts/iShares funds was April 30, 2021.
As the process is not yet industry mandated for all Fixed Income products, only two Broadridge clients are currently impacted. If at any point in the future CNS processing for all Fixed Income Funds becomes mandatory, both impact and BPS are prepared to support Broadridge clients.
