Kill Switch
CME Globex Kill Switch allows Clearing firms a one-step shutdown of all their CME Globex activity at the SenderComp ID level. When Kill Switch functionality is activated by the permissioned firm, all order entry is blocked and all working orders are cancelled for either a selected subset or all of the firm's SenderComp IDs.

Access to Kill Switch functionality is available to all current GC2 Risk Admins. Clearing Firms will have the ability to grant access to the functionality to their Executing Firms.
