On June 4, ISDA submitted a response to the Bank of England’s (BoE) consultation on its approach to using its requirements and permissions powers to facilitate mobilization of new central counterparties (CCPs). The consultation includes a draft policy statement, setting out how the BoE will use its powers to impose de miminis limits and give permissions to modify or waive certain rules for new CCPs in a ‘mobilization’ phase.
ISDA supports the proposed framework to facilitate mobilization of new CCPs and promote innovation, including the use of tokenized collateral. ISDA recommends extending the regime to existing CCPs to ensure a level playing field and calls for clearer safeguards, including transparent and risk-based de minimis limits, strong disclosure to clearing members and strict constraints on rule waivers.
