Date: May 29th 2012 (10am EST / 3pm BST)
In this complimentary webinar, the panel explores how financial institutions can prepare for the increased demand for transaction valuations and related swap data for real-time reporting of swap transactions and pricing data required under new OTC derivatives regulation.
Transparency is at the heart of regulatory reform in the OTC derivatives market under the Dodd-Frank Act and EMIR, and trade reporting is a key vehicle for achieving this transparency. Recently adopted CFTC rules for the real-time public reporting of swap data and evolving market infrastructure for the execution, clearing and reporting of some OTC derivatives via SEFs, CCPs and SDRs have introduced new operational and technological burdens, and are driving the market’s preparation for swap trade reporting.
In a live webinar, a panel of experts will review swap trade reporting, pre and post-trade transparency requirements, and how these new requirements will impact market data management, valuations and reporting processes within financial institutions.
The panel will discuss the following topics:
• Swap trade reporting mandates from the CFTC, SEC, MiFIR and EMIR – what constitutes real-time reporting, who will be affected by this and what data is actually required by various regulatory agencies?
• Sourcing data – what considerations should be given to collecting and aggregating trade data from various and new sources including SEFs, CCPs and brokers
• Swap valuations – what’s required and who’s responsible for providing it?
• Block trading – what are the reporting requirements for block trades and how can that affect liquidity?
• Swaps reporting for cleared swaps – how will swaps clearing impact a firm’s valuation process? How will the valuation process change to support central clearing from a collateral management perspective and how will this be reported? What is the operational burden for clearing participants?
• Operational challenges – What are some of the operational burdens firms may face when preparing for real-time reporting or the new trade reporting requirements generally?
• Collateral – How can institutions monitor collateral positions with the CCPs?
Speakers to be announced shortly.
