6 Cleared OTC Derivatives Key Provisions and Timeline What Dodd Frank Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act provides for the bi-jurisdictional regulatory oversight of the OTC derivatives markets by the SEC and the CFTC. Title VII requires : Mandatory clearing of all swaps accepted by a clearing entity and designated by CFTC and SEC as clearable Mandatory execution of cleared swaps on a regulated exchange or a swap execution facility (SEF) Mandatory reporting of all swaps to registered swap data repositories (SDRs) Capital and Risk Mitigation Rules Business Conduct Rules Cleared swaps, like Futures, will be subject to initial and variation margin requirements. These will be calculated by the clearing house and reported by the clearing broker. They will, however, retain the traits of a bilateral OTC trade and will have Coupons, Credit Events, Corporate Actions etc. Who and When The first clearing mandate is phased-in as follows: Category 1 Entities : 11 March 2013 This group includes: Swap Dealers, Security Based Swap Dealers, Major Swap Participants, Major Security Based Swap Participants and Active Funds) (Active funds are defined as funds which have no third party sub-accounts and which execute at least 200 trades a month on a 12 month trailing basis) Category 2 Entities : 10 June 2013 This group includes: entities such as commodity pools, private funds that are not Active Funds, mutual funds, entities whose activities are predominantly financial in nature, provided that the entity is not a third-party sub-account Category 3 Entities : 9 September 2013 This group includes: all others, including employee benefit plans identified in paragraphs (3) and (32) of section 3 of the Employee Retirement Income and Security Act of 1974,entities that are third party sub-accounts who transact through asset managers The First CFTC Clearing Mandate The determinations require that swaps in four interest rate swap classes and two credit default swap classes be cleared under section 2(h) of the CEA. Swap Category Interest Rate Swaps Credit Default Swaps Swap Class Fixed-to-Floating; Basis; Forward Rate Agreement; Overnight Agreement North American Untranched CDS Indices; European Untranched CDS Indices Class 3

7 OTC Clearing Concepts and Terms Central clearing is the process in which financial transactions are cleared by a single central counterparty to reduce individual counterparty risk. Each party in the transaction enters into a contract with the central counterparty, so each party does not take on the risk of the other defaulting. In this way, the counterparty is essentially involved in two mutually opposing contracts. Clearing Conceptual Model Investment / Asset Manager (IM) 1A) Trade is SEF executed 3) Affirms, Allocates and Assigns Clearing Broker 1) Trade is voice executed Swap Execution Facility (SEF) Affirmation Platform 1A 2) EB alleges trade Executing Broker SEF: A trading system or platform that enables many participants to execute or trade swaps and facilitates price discovery. (e.g. TradeWeb, MarketAxess, Bloomberg, Creditex). Expected registration by July 2012) Affirmation Platform:- An electronic platform for affirming and allocating the trades and assigning the clearing broker. (e.g. MarkitWire, ICELink, VCON). Also referred to as a middleware platform and routes the trade to the clearing house 4) Matched trades sent 5) Cleared notification sent post validation, credit limit check and acceptance for clearing Executing Broker: The broker who executes the transaction. Previously the OTC counterparty. Clearing House / CCP Clearing Broker Future State Current State Association CCP: The Central Counterparty (CCP) is a financial institution that acts as an intermediary between security market participants. It reduces the amount of counterparty risk market participants are exposed to. For centrally cleared swaps, the Clearing House is the Central Counterparty. (Example: CME, ICE, LCH). The CCP also provides the price for valuation of OTC contracts. Clearing Broker Clearing Broker: A member of the clearing house that acts as a liaison between an investor and a clearing house. A clearing broker helps to ensure that the trade is settled appropriately and the transaction is successful. (e.g. Barclays, Citibank, Credit Suisse, UBS, Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs) 4

13 OTC Central Clearing Accounting Model How will cleared swaps appear in the accounting record? Cleared swaps will appear in the accounting record in generally the same way as bilateral swaps Cleared swaps will be held on 1 leg with the upfront fee reflected as realized gain/loss The accounting treatment for upfront fees will not change however the upfront fee will become a component of the variation margin and require reconciliation to the clearing broker statement Cleared swaps will be distinguished from bilateral swaps with a position level flag The clearinghouse associated with the cleared swap will be identified How will interest accruals and payments change from bilateral to central clearing? No change in the accounting for interest accruals and coupon payments. The accounting treatment for interest accruals and coupon payments accruals will not change however they will become a component of the variation margin wire and require reconciliation to the clearing broker statement 10

14 OTC Central Clearing Accounting Model (cont d) How will clearing broker commissions and clearing house fees appear in the accounting record? Clearing broker commissions and clearinghouse fees are new trading expenses in central clearing The commissions and fees will be sourced from the trade ticket or the clearing broker statement The commissions and fees will be processed to the accounting recorded as realized loss How will variation margin and initial margin be reflected in the accounting record? The clearing broker statement will be used as the source for processing the settled variation and initial margin amounts. Margin for cleared swaps will be segregated from margin on futures Variation margin movements for cleared swaps will be made up of many components. Where necessary, the components of variation margin will be processed separately. Variation margin components and net amount will be reconciled back to the clearing broker statement 11

15 Transaction Capture Automation Participant J.P. Morgan Fund Services Investment Manager Plan Sponsor Key Activities Enhanced trade capture to consume the following data points: 1. Identification of Cleared versus Bilateral 2. Clearinghouse 3. Executing and Clearing Broker 4. Clearing Broker Commissions 5. Clearing house Fees 6. New Market Identifiers Provided specifications and samples for automated messaging languages to investment managers Enhanced all relevant systems to capture additional data and identify cleared as a distinct category to bilateral OTC trades Consumed new fields in derivatives processing, fund accounting, and reporting systems Provide transaction instructions to fund administrator and custodian after trade successfully cleared Understand and adopt automated trade instructions recommendations provided by ISITC and SWIFT forums Enhance existing transaction capture methods (manual/automated) with additional fields Provide sample trade messages to J.P. Morgan Fund Services Testing of automation functionality with J.P. Morgan Fund Services Encourage Investment Managers to prioritize automation from the outset with the fund administrator and custodian Industry Engagement J.P. Morgan Fund Services engaged with SWIFT and ISITC industry working groups to upgrade the FpML messages for electronic trade instructions J.P. Morgan Fund Services proposed a business case that was approved and adopted by SWIFT and ISITC 12

16 Clearing Broker Utility Participant J.P. Morgan Fund Services Investment Manager Plan Sponsors Key Activities Created a Clearing Broker Utility to perform the following functions: 1. Map and store cash activity and position data from all clearing brokers into a normalised format 2. Send cash activity transactions from the clearing broker statements to the accounting system 3. Perform OTC clearing positions reconciliations to the clearing broker statements daily 4. Perform cash activity and cash balance reconciliations to the clearing broker statements daily Select Clearing Brokers based on best use of standards and data availability Support industry initiatives around standardization of Clearing Broker data and availability Provide fund administrator with authorization to obtain access to the clearing broker statements Provide fund administrator with initial margin and variation margin settlement preferences Encourage investment managers and their clearing brokers to participate in and adopt ISDA s clearing connectivity standard Industry Engagement J.P.

17 Valuation Participant J.P. Morgan Fund Services Investment Manager Plan Sponsors Key Activities J.P. Morgan Fund Services is developing the architecture to support clearing house prices J.P. Morgan Fund Services is establishing connectivity with CME, ICE and LCH clearing houses to obtain price files for IRS and CDX mandated products Challenges to obtaining and applying the clearing houses prices include: timing of final price files, reliability and data segregation In the interim, J.P. Morgan Fund Services will continue to provide valuations for cleared trades based on the sources used for bilateral trades Provide authorization to clearing houses for 3 rd party access Provide identifiers as part of trade instruction that allow J.P. Morgan Fund Services to identify relevant trades and apply the clearing house unit price to value trades Investment managers should be aware that the clearing house price files contain all investment manager data across service providers Some investment managers have expressed reservation about providing all fund data to 3 rd party administrators Confirm desired valuation approach for their cleared OTC positions Industry Engagement J.P. Morgan Fund Services is advocating with the clearinghouses to offer price files in a format more suitable to the needs of a fund administrator. J.P. Morgan Fund Services is engaged with the industry to stay abreast of when a pricing vendor will start offering the clearinghouse prices. 14
