Financial Clearing House Peering
1. Background– MACH has been the only company to provide Financial
Clearing House (FCH) service to CDMA carriers(Carriers).– Syniverse newly started to provide FCH service since late
2008.2. Benefit of using FCH service
– Carriers can enjoy ONE STOP inter-carrier settlement with its Roaming Partners(RP) using FCH service.
3. Current issue (Please refer to Appendix I)– Carriers which are using different vendors’ FCH service cannot
enjoy ONE STOP inter-carrier settlement, which diminish the benefit of FCH service and increases burden (Bilateral settlement) on Carriers.

Financial Clearing House Peering4. Benefit of achieving FCH peering
– FCH service become attractive to Carriers as more Carriers participate in the service. FCH vendors can explore more business possibilities with carriers which currently do NOT use FCH services.
– Carriers can keep enjoying benefit of using FCH services (ONE STOP inter-carrier settlement).
5. What has been done– CDG IRT contacted MACH and Syniverse to request peering to
each other.– CDG IRT requested Ms. Sara Aab and Mr. Daniel Salek to
lead/moderate FCH peering for CDG IRT.– MACH and Syniverse agreed to accomplish FCH peering.
