The 2021 ISDA Interest Rate Derivatives Definitions will replace the 2006 ISDA Definitions as the standard contractual reference for global interest rate derivatives trading. The new definitions reflect various changes in market practice, ensuring the derivatives community will be able to trade safely and efficiently for years to come.
ISDA’s short animation video explains why the new definitions are being introduced and outlines the key updates from the 2006 ISDA Definitions.
