In our “Methodology for Regulatory Comparisons” document, ISDA proposed concepts to guide the comparisons of derivatives regulations that will be carried out by regulators assessing the possibility of substituted compliance. Our methodology relies on regulators, with input from the markets, developing common principles that will apply in various subject matter areas within derivatives regulation. These principles should be cast to support comparability of regulation without requiring identical regulation. To illustrate our proposed methodology, we offer the following examples of common principles. These examples have been developed and organized in relation to several of the original G-20 derivatives goals. (To be clear, these are merely examples and do not purport to illustrate comprehensive treatment of their subject matter areas.)
