ISDA derivatiViews: A Welcome Extension On US Treasury Clearing
Date 26/02/2025
Yesterday, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced it would delay the implementation of mandatory clearing for US Treasury securities by one year. That means eligible cash transactions will now need to be cleared by December 31, 2026, with repos following from June 30, 2027. This is a very welcome extension that ISDA and other industry groups had been advocating for and we’d like to thank the SEC for taking this crucial step. But it’s important to bear in mind that this is the absolute minimum extension that is necessary – several critical operational, regulatory and legal issues need to be resolved, and this will take time.

Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Kristin N. Johnson On The Enforcement Advisory On Self-Reporting, Cooperation And Remediation
Date 26/02/2025
Today, the Division of Enforcement released an Enforcement Advisory on Self-Reporting, Cooperation and Remediation (Advisory). I thank the Division staff for receiving and considering the comments shared by my office. While I am supportive of the goals of greater transparency, clarity, and efficiency in enforcement practices designed and developed to enhance registrants’ willingness to be forthcoming and cooperative with the Commission, I believe that we must be careful not to muddy the waters. To best enable market participants to develop internal compliance infrastructure, is critical that the Commission offer clear, consistent guidance that enables effective compliance as well as a well-defined pathway to report, cooperate, or remediate. We must exercise caution when advancing new reporting, cooperation, and remediation regimes or rescinding long-standing guidance. Any effort to adopt new reporting processes, particularly processes that require inter-division guidelines and infrastructure, must be consistent with the mandates of our statue and regulation. Consequently, I am unable to support the Division’s recent Advisory.
