(ISDA), the Institute of International Finance (IIF), and their respective members submitted a response to the BCBS-IOSCO-CPMI Review of Margining Practices (September 2022) which are reflected in the BCBS-IOSCO WGMR consultative report on Streamlining VM Processes and IM Responsiveness of Margin Models in Non-Centrally Cleared Markets (the “Report”).
ISDA’s Collateral Initiatives work responds to our members’ goals to reduce collateral management costs and risks by automating and streamlining collateral management, including documentation and onboarding, margin call and settlement, and collateral optimization.
ISDA is committed to ensuring the longevity of the ISDA SIMM®, a robust, regulatory compliant and effective global initial margin model. Dialogue with global regulators has resulted in the adoption of a number of enhancements to the SIMM Governance Framework.
