ISDA: Risk Sensitive Capital Treatment For Clearing Member Exposure To Central Counterparty Default Funds (ISDA paper)
ISDA has been working on a proposal that we consider can be calibrated to properly measure the risk of loss of a Clearing Member’s (“CM”) default fund contribution and meet regulatory requirements. The proposal builds on existing frameworks and in our view has a firm theoretical underpinning which should deliver appropriate sensitivity to the key risks to the default fund. Part of the proposal, specifically the Historic Drawdown Measure (“HDM”) has been reviewed by the Joint Working Group (“JWG”). We now propose to incorporate the HDM into an Incremental Default Risk Charge (“IDRC”), which is the type of model that is currently used for trading book default risk. Our proposal is that Central Counterparties (“CCPs”) would be requiredto provide the HDM data to CMs. CMs would then run an IDRC model to estimatethe 99.9th percentile loss on the basis that they might become liable for calls on the default fund over a one-year time horizon. The capital requirement covers funded and unfunded losses.

Statement By The Republic Of Cyprus Government Spokesman Mr Christos Stylianides During A Press Conference With The Ministers That Participate In The Government’s Negotiating Team With Troika
Today the formation of the Memorandum was completed, which consists a prerequisite for the Loan Agreement. This is an important development which brings a long period of uncertainty to an end. Undoubtedly, the completion of the Agreement with Troika should have taken place a lot sooner, under more favourable political and financial circumstances. Even with this delay, the situation is now normalizing, stabilizing and the conditions to restart the economy are created.
