FSB Welcomes Industry Initiative To Remove Cross-Border Close-Out Risk
Date 12/10/2014
The Financial Stability Board (FSB) welcomes the announcement today by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) of the agreement of a protocol to the ISDA Master Agreement as an important step to improve the effectiveness of cross-border resolution actions. Under this protocol, counterparties agree to the cross-border enforceability of temporary stays on early termination and cross-default rights in over-the-counter (OTC) bilateral derivatives contracts. As part of this announcement, an initial set of 18 global systemically important banks (G-SIBs) and other large dealer banks have committed to execute the protocol by the time of the Brisbane G20 Summit in November. Once enacted, the protocol will help to reduce the risk that resolution of a bank with significant cross-border operations triggers a cascade of termination events in bilateral OTC derivatives contracts that leads to disruption in the wider market and undermines the measures that the authorities are taking to maintain financial stability and to prevent costs to the taxpayer.
