ISDA has announced that LSEG has integrated ISDA’s Digital Regulatory Reporting (DRR) solution into its Post Trade Solutions business, TradeAgent, representing a significant milestone in the industry deployment of the ISDA DRR.

The ISDA DRR converts an industry-agreed interpretation of reporting requirements into unambiguous, machine-readable code and has so far been applied to eight sets of reporting rules around the world. By integrating it within TradeAgent, the new market utility will have the certainty of a unified, mutualized industry interpretation of reporting rules.

TradeAgent is a centralized over-the-counter derivatives post-trade processing platform designed to eliminate inefficiencies and streamline workflows through three services: trade confirmation and routing; a central authoritative data store; and calculation and settlement of bilateral cashflows. Like the ISDA DRR, TradeAgent is built on the Common Domain Model (CDM), an open‑source data standard for financial products, trades and lifecycle events, which provides the vital foundation to standardize and automate industry processes.

“Integration of the ISDA DRR within the TradeAgent platform is an important step forward in the broad adoption of the CDM and ISDA DRR. By embedding the CDM and the DRR into post-trade platforms as LSEG has done, industry service providers can achieve greater standardization and automation, improve the accuracy and consistency of regulatory reporting and reduce operational complexity across the trade lifecycle,” said Scott O’Malia, ISDA’s Chief Executive.

“Integrating ISDA’s Digital Regulatory Reporting solution into TradeAgent is a significant step in delivering greater consistency, accuracy and confidence in regulatory reporting for our customers,” said Annabel Harrison, Head of Agent Services, Post Trade Solutions, LSEG. “By combining the DRR with TradeAgent’s CDM‑based post‑trade processing platform, we are helping firms reduce operational complexity, achieve a single, reliable interpretation of reporting rules and advance the industry’s move towards more standardized, automated post‑trade processes.”

“It is very exciting to see LSEG’s TradeAgent leveraging the CDM, reflecting years of industry collaboration to create a shared standard ready for production deployment. The CDM’s flexible, composable representation of trades supports a growing range of use cases. As adoption expands across banks, fintechs and market infrastructure providers, the transformative value of this shared data model will only continue to grow,” said Jane Gavronsky, Chief Operating Officer of the Fintech Open Source Foundation (FINOS), which provides the open-source governance framework for the CDM.
