TSX Buy-Ins
In order to support CDS in cases where a seller has failed to deliver a security following a trade, TSX has developed a special "Buy-In" facility to locate alternate sellers capable of immediately delivering the security, therefore enabling CDS to quickly and efficiently clear the failed position.
Buy-In Procedures:
On a daily basis, CDS provides a list of securities that Participating Organizations have failed to make delivery on.
1:30 PM (1st Cycle) - TSX receives and posts the preliminary Buy-In list. At this point, other Participating Organizations have the opportunity to provide liquidity by submitting Buy-In orders.
2:45 PM (2nd Cycle) - TSX receives and posts the Final Buy-In list. This list identifies the remaining securities that still need to be delivered.
3:00 PM - Cut-off for accepting Buy-In orders
Upon completion of the Buy-In period, TSX allocates fills on an equal by member basis to the sellers and calculates a price. This price is based on the last board lot trade before 3:00 plus a premium.
