On July 27, ISDA submitted a response to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission’s (ASIC) consultation on its proposed regulatory guide on pre-hedging.
ISDA’s response emphasizes the importance of international consistency, including alignment with the International Organization of Securities Commissions’ (IOSCO) final report on pre-hedging, and supports a proportionate, principles-based and risk-based approach. ISDA asks that ASIC’s guidance remain consistent with IOSCO’s recommendations and existing industry codes to support a level playing field across markets and reduce uncertainty for market participants.
