On January 10, ISDA and the Global Foreign Exchange Division (GFXD) of the Global Financial Markets Association (GFMA) responded to questions from the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) on the future of the systematic internalizer (SI) regime. In the response, ISDA and GFXD support the proposal that firms are no longer required to identify themselves as SIs for derivatives trading and provide input on the consequences of this requirement falling away. ISDA and GFXD do not believe there will be any impact for reporting, best execution or on market structure.
