Basic Obligation: To provide on a continuous basis bid and offer prices for predefined quantities of contracts. The spread between bid and offer prices cannot exceed the highest limit

allowed that ATHEX sets for each product. If the Market Maker does not enter quotes he pays a fine.

Necessity of the Market Maker: Ensuring of liquidity in the market and spread reduction. Most of the derivatives markets operate with the presence of Market

Makers. Their role is very important for new products.

The purpose of the Market Maker: To maximize the volume by buying at bid and selling at offer or by hedging their position in derivatives with an opposite position in the spot market. It is not his purpose to take a position in the market, to influence the

market or to hold the market.
