On August 24, 2026, ISDA and SIFMA submitted a joint response to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Joint Request for Comment on Swap and Security-Based Swap Data Reporting. In the response, the associations identify five strategic priorities for achieving the goal to improve reporting by providing better, more consistent data, reducing unnecessary operational complexity, minimizing compliance costs, and enhancing market efficiencies, without compromising regulatory oversight:

  1. Simplify and clarify reporting obligations
  2. Align SEC SBS reporting rules with the CFTC’s streamlined swap rules—“harmonize down,” not up
  3. Improve the utility of public price dissemination
  4. Conduct a holistic, industry-informed review of reporting fields
  5. Leverage technology—including ISDA’s Digital Regulatory Reporting (DRR)—for consistent implementation
