CDS environment - opening hours and reference data files
As previously announced, the CDS environment is now upgraded with the Burgundy segments. The trading calendars for the Nordic markets are different, and the trading calendar of each market will set the opening hours of the CDS environment.
The CDS environment is open as normal for all markets on Monday 25 March and Tuesday 26 March. On Wednesday 27 March the Norwegian and Danish markets are available in CDS half trading day, while the Swedish and Finnish markets are available all day. On Thursday 28 March the CDS is closed for the Norwegian and Danish markets, the Swedish market is available half trading day, while the Finnish market is available all day. Friday 29 March and Monday 1 April the CDS is closed for all markets.
Oslo Børs personnel are available until close Wednesday 27 March.
On Wednesday 27 March reference data files will be published as normal, with Thursday's date. There will also be generated new reference data files on Thursday 28 March as normal, for the first trading day after Easter, Tuesday 2 April. Reference data for the Norwegian and Danish markets will here be identical to the data in the files produced on Wednesday 27 March, since these markets are closed on Thursday.
After the Burgundy markets are launched on the Millennium platform in June, the general scheme regarding holidays will be that new reference data files will be generated the day before, as long as one of the markets are open the next day. The contents of the reference data files will then be applied to the market that is open and new files for the next trading day will be generated after the market has closed.
