ISDA MEMBER LOGIN REQUIRED. With Regulatory Technical Standards finalised, firms went live from March 2013 on key requirements under the EU legislation for clearing, trade reporting and the treatment of bilateral transactions (EMIR). This webinar addresses how the requirements affect you, whatever the size and nature of your activity in OTC derivatives. There are sections on the instruments and entities in scope; the varying treatment of financial and non-financial entities (and sovereigns too); and the crucial issue of territorial scope. Also discussed are ISDA’s plans to update documentation to reflect the new regulatory landscape.
