In order to meet the relevant conditions in the 91-507 derivatives trade reporting rules issued by Canadian provincial regulators, ISDA administers the 2015 Multilateral Non-Dealer Canadian Reporting Party Agreement to facilitate single sided reporting for transactions between non-dealers that involve a local Canadian counterparty.
In addition, a corresponding agreement for transactions between dealers—the ISDA 2014 Multilateral Canadian Reporting Party Agreement (Dealer Version)—was published on September 22, 2014. Both documents are designed to be extended to incorporate derivatives transaction reporting requirements that may be issued by other Canadian regulators.
To adhere to either agreement, please contact Eleanor Hsu (ehsu@isda.org).
Adherents to these agreements can leverage the reporting party hierarchy and tie-breaker logic available in ISDA’s Canadian Transaction Reporting Party Requirements to determine a single reporting party.
All documents are available on the “Canada” section of ISDA’s website and on the “Reporting” section of ISDA’s website.
