Revisions to Business Conduct and Swap Documentation Requirements for Swap Dealers and Major Swap Participants

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC" or "Commission") is proposing amendments to certain of the Commission's business conduct and documentation requirements applicable to swap dealers and major swap participants. These amendments would provide exceptions to compliance with such requirements when executing swaps that are: intended by the parties to be cleared contemporaneously with execution; or subject to prime broker arrangements that meet certain qualifying conditions. The proposed amendments would also make certain other changes discussed herein. The proposed amendments, if adopted, would supersede certain no-action positions issued by the Commission's Market Participants Division ("MPD").
