BECOMING AN ASSOCIATE MEMBER

Associate Memberships in ISDA are in the firm's, and not the individual's, name. Each Associate Member designates a primary contact from within the institution who serves as that firm's main liaison with the Association. Associate Members, however, may also list other regional contacts, as well as individuals in specialized areas for inclusion on ISDA's committees and mailing lists.

Unless waived by the Board of Directors, any applicant seeking election to any class of membership in the Association shall make a written application. A copy of the application form can be downloaded from ISDA's website, and when completed should be sent via fax to ISDA’s Director of Conferences and Membership, Liz Zazzera at 212-901-6007 (Phone: 212-901-6004 Email: lzazzera@isda.org).

Upon receipt of such application, the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors examine it and determine whether the applicant is eligible for membership as well as the appropriate class of membership. Members of the Association are elected by a majority vote of the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors.
