II.
Background

A. Certain Reporting Obligations

On June 27, 2016, the Commission published its final rule on Amendments to Swap Data
Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements for Cleared Swaps (the “Cleared Swap Rule”).5
The Cleared Swap Rule amended Part 45 of the Commission’s regulations6 to clarify or address
certain reporting obligations, including the obligations for DCOs to (a) report the termination of
swaps accepted for clearing by the DCO (defined as “original swaps” and known in the industry
as “alpha swaps”);7 (b) report creation data and continuation data for swaps to which the DCO is
a counterparty (defined as “clearing swaps”)8; and (c) generate the unique swap identifier
(“USI”) for each clearing swap and transmit that USI to the DCO’s counterparty.9

The Cleared Swap Rule defined “derivatives clearing organization” exclusively as a DCO
registered with the Commission.10 Because a Relief DCO would not be a “derivatives clearing
ounterparty (defined as “clearing swaps”)8; and (c) generate the unique swap identifier
(“USI”) for each clearing swap and transmit that USI to the DCO’s counterparty.9

The Cleared Swap Rule defined “derivatives clearing organization” exclusively as a DCO
registered with the Commission.10 Because a Relief DCO would not be a “derivatives clearing

5 81 FR 41736 (June 27, 2016). The compliance date for the Cleared Swap Rule was December 27, 2016.
6 17 CFR part 45.
7 17 CFR 45.4(c).
8 17 CFR 45.3(e) (creation data for clearing swaps); 17 CFR 45.4(b) (continuation data for clearing swaps).
9 17 CFR 45.5(d).
10 17 CFR 45.1 (definition of “derivatives clearing organization”); Cleared Swap Rule, 81 FR at 41739 (declining to
extend the definition of “derivatives clearing organization” to include exempt DCOs). While the Commission
recently amended certain Part 45 regulations, Swap Data Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements, 85 FR 75503
(Nov. 25, 2020), the definition of “derivatives clearing organization” remains a DCO registered with the

3
organization” for purposes of the Cleared Swap Rule, a swap accepted for clearing by a Relief
DCO would not be an “original swap” under § 45.4 of the Commission’s regulations.11
Therefore, the obligation to terminate the Relief DCO Original Swap did not fall to the Relief
DCO. Further, it meant Relief DCO Clearing Swaps were not considered “clearing swaps” for
purposes of the Cleared Swap Rule. As a result, reporting obligations for Relief DCO Clearing
Swaps fell to the Relief DCO Counterparty (either a swap dealer (“SD”), major swap participant
(“MSP”), or non-SD/MSP counterparty) by operation of the reporting hierarchy under § 45.8.12

While not subject to reporting obligations imposed on registered DCOs under the Cleared
Swap Rule, Relief DCOs are required pursuant to a term of an exemptive order or as condition to
no-action letters to fulfill many of the same obligations
rparty (either a swap dealer (“SD”), major swap participant
(“MSP”), or non-SD/MSP counterparty) by operation of the reporting hierarchy under § 45.8.12

While not subject to reporting obligations imposed on registered DCOs under the Cleared
Swap Rule, Relief DCOs are required pursuant to a term of an exemptive order or as condition to
no-action letters to fulfill many of the same obligations. As noted above, there are currently four
DCOs acting under exemptive orders issued by the Commission13 and an additional DCO,
Shanghai Clearing House, acting pursuant to a no-action letter from DCR (“Shanghai NAL”).

Each of the exemptive orders includes the following requirement:

(10) Swap Data Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements. If a clearing member
clears through [Relief DCO] a swap that has been reported to a Commission-registered
swap data repository (“SDR”) pursuant to Part 45 of the Commission's regulations, then
[Relief DCO] must report to an SDR, pursuant to this Order, data regarding the two
swaps resulting from the novation of the original swap that had been submitted to [Relief
DCO] for clearing. [Relief DCO] must also report the termination of the swap accepted
for clearing by [Relief DCO], to the SDR to which the swap was originally reported. In
order to avoid duplicative reporting for such transactions, [Relief DCO] shall have rules
that prohibit the Part 45 reporting of the two new swaps by the original counterparties to
the original swap.14

While the exemptive orders and Shanghai NAL place certain reporting obligations on the
Relief DCOs, neither the exemptive orders nor Shanghai NAL provide any relief or no-action
position to the Relief DCO Counterparty for any reporting obligations.

B. Certain Reporting Data Fields in Parts 43 and 45

The Cleared Swap Rule’s definition of “derivatives clearing organization” also implicates
certain data elements that must be reported for Relief ITBC Swaps
obligations on the
Relief DCOs, neither the exemptive orders nor Shanghai NAL provide any relief or no-action
position to the Relief DCO Counterparty for any reporting obligations.

B. Certain Reporting Data Fields in Parts 43 and 45

The Cleared Swap Rule’s definition of “derivatives clearing organization” also implicates
certain data elements that must be reported for Relief ITBC Swaps. When the Cleared Swap
Rule was promulgated in 2016, Part 45 of the Commission’s regulations required certain primary
economic terms (“PET”) data to be reported for every swap. Two PET data fields, “Clearing

the terms of the Cleared Swap Rule

Relief ITBC Swap would have had to indicate that the swaps are not intended to be cleared under
the terms of the Cleared Swap Rule.

Additionally, when the Cleared Swap Rule was promulgated, Part 43 of the
Commission’s regulations required certain data to be reported for every publicly reportable swap
transaction, including whether the swap is “Cleared or Uncleared” with a “derivatives clearing
organization.”16 The term “derivatives clearing organization” was not defined in Part 43 of the
Commission’s regulations, making it ambiguous as to whether a Relief ITBC Swap was “Cleared
or Uncleared” for the purposes of reporting pursuant to Part 43.

On September 17, 2020, the Commission amended certain Parts 45 and 43 regulations.17
As part of these amendments, the Commission updated the technical specifications for the data
fields to specify that exempt DCOs should report swaps to SDRs.18 The compliance date for the
regulations amending Parts 45 and 43 is May 25, 2022. However, on January 31, 2022, DOD
issued CFTC Letter No. 22-03, stating that DOD will not recommend that the Commission take
an enforcement action against an entity for failure to comply with the regulations amending Parts
45 and 43 before December 5, 2022.19 If the no-action position granted in CFTC Letter No. 21-
12 is not renewed, market participants will need to comply with portions of the amended Parts 45
and 43 regulations before December 5, 2022.

III.
Requested No-Action Position

ISDA requests the renewal of the no-action position ISDA originally requested regarding
reporting obligations for counterparties facing Relief DCOs.20 First, ISDA requested that
reporting counterparties that are neither DCOs nor central counterparties be relieved of the
following reporting obligations:

1. Reporting swap continuation data for alpha swaps that have been accepted for clearing by
a Relief DCO;21

15 Appendix 1 to Swap Data Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements, 77 FR 2136 (Jan. 13, 2012).
16 Appendix A to Real-Time Public Reporting of Swap Transaction Data, 77 FR 1182 (Jan. 9, 2012).
17 Swap Data Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements, 85 FR 75503 (Nov. 25, 2020); Real-Time Public
Reporting Requirements, 85 FR 75422 (Nov. 25, 2020).
18 For instance, the instructions on how to report whether a swap has been “Cleared” specify that references to
“central counterparty” in the data fields should be read to mean “derivatives clearing organizations” and “exempt
derivatives clearing organizations.” See Parts 43 and 45 Technical Specifications – September 2021, available at

21 ISDA requested certain relief relating to swaps intended to be cleared with central counterparties exempted by the
Commission and central counterparties that received no-action letters from DCR. DMO and DOD have combined
these two types of central counterparties as “Relief DCOs” for purposes of CFTC Letters 16-85, 18-03, 21-12, and
this letter.

2. Reporting any creation data and continuation data for swaps resulting from novation of
an alpha swap accepted for clearing by a Relief DCO, as well as any related swaps which
may be entered into as part of post-trade activities including netting or compression
exercises or novations; and
3. Generating USIs for swaps created through the process of clearing a swap with a Relief
DCO.

Second, ISDA requested that reporting counterparties be allowed to report the “Clearing
indicator” and “Clearing venue” PET data fields for swaps intended to be cleared by a Relief
DCO as if those swaps would be cleared by a registered DCO. DOD notes this no-action
position would also be relevant to reporting entities other than the counterparties to a Relief
DCO Original Swap, such as swap execution facilities and designated contract markets.

ISDA has requested DOD renew the no-action position in CFTC Letters 16-85, 18-03,
and 21-12 to provide certainty as to the reporting obligations for the relevant market participants
and to resolve any conflicting reporting obligations of Relief DCOs and Relief DCO
Counterparties. To do so, DOD will renew the no-action position originally provided in CFTC
Letters 16-85, 18-03, and 21-12 as follows.

Counterparties. To do so, DOD will renew the no-action position originally provided in CFTC
Letters 16-85, 18-03, and 21-12 as follows.

IV.
Time Limited No-Action Position

A. Certain Reporting Obligations

Based on the facts presented and the representations that ISDA has made, DOD will not
recommend enforcement action to the Commission against Relief DCO Counterparties, solely
for failure to comply with the following reporting obligations:

a. Reporting continuation data pursuant to § 45.4 on Relief DCO Original Swaps after
the acceptance of such Relief DCO Original Swaps for clearing by the Relief DCO,
including reporting the termination of the Relief DCO Original Swap;
b. Reporting creation data pursuant to § 45.3 and continuation data pursuant to § 45.4 on
Relief DCO Clearing Swaps; and
c. Generating USIs for Relief DCO Clearing Swaps pursuant to § 45.5.

This no-action position is subject to the condition that the Relief DCO Counterparty must
provide to the Relief DCO all information on the Relief DCO Original Swap required by the
Relief DCO in its clearing agreement.

For Relief DCO Original Swaps and Relief DCO Clearing Swaps, the no-action position
taken in this section will continue until the earlier of: (a) December 5, 2022; or (b) the revocation
or expiration of the exemptive order or no-action letter issued to the relevant Relief DCO. Relief
DCO Counterparties retain all other reporting obligations for which they are responsible under
Parts 43 and 45 of the Commission’s regulations, and would be relieved of no obligations if the
Relief DCO rejects the swap for clearing.

B. Certain Reporting Data Fields in Parts 43 and 45
ocation
or expiration of the exemptive order or no-action letter issued to the relevant Relief DCO. Relief
DCO Counterparties retain all other reporting obligations for which they are responsible under
Parts 43 and 45 of the Commission’s regulations, and would be relieved of no obligations if the
Relief DCO rejects the swap for clearing.

B. Certain Reporting Data Fields in Parts 43 and 45

6

Based on the facts presented and the representations that ISDA has made, DOD grants
this time-limited no-action letter to entities reporting Relief ITBC Swaps22 with respect to the
reporting of the PET data elements “Clearing indicator” and “Clearing venue,” pursuant to Part
45 of the Commission’s regulations. DOD will not recommend enforcement action to the
Commission against an entity reporting Relief ITBC Swaps for identifying such swaps as
intended to be cleared in the “Clearing indicator” PET data field, or for identifying the legal
entity identifier (“LEI”) of the Relief DCO in the “Clearing venue” PET data field.

In order to avoid any potential confusion over the requirements to report certain data
fields for Relief ITBC Swaps pursuant to Part 43 of the Commission’s regulations, DOD also
will not recommend enforcement action to the Commission against an entity reporting Relief
ITBC Swaps for identifying such swaps as intended to be cleared in the “Cleared or Uncleared”
data field to be reported pursuant to Part 43.

This no-action position is subject to the condition that the entity reporting a Relief ITBC
Swap must populate all “Clearing indicator” PET fields in Part 45 reporting, and all “Cleared or
Uncleared” fields in Part 43 reporting, for all swaps intended to be cleared through the relevant
Relief DCO. To comply with this relief, the entity reporting such swap must report all swaps
intended to be cleared by a particular Relief DCO as being intended for clearing in both Parts 43
and 45 reporting
st populate all “Clearing indicator” PET fields in Part 45 reporting, and all “Cleared or
Uncleared” fields in Part 43 reporting, for all swaps intended to be cleared through the relevant
Relief DCO. To comply with this relief, the entity reporting such swap must report all swaps
intended to be cleared by a particular Relief DCO as being intended for clearing in both Parts 43
and 45 reporting.

This no-action position is subject to the additional condition that the entity reporting a
Relief ITBC Swap must report the LEI of the relevant Relief DCO with all Part 45 reports for all
swaps intended to be cleared with that Relief DCO.

For all Relief ITBC Swaps, the no-action position taken in this section will continue until
the earlier of: (a) December 5, 2022; or (b) the revocation or expiration of the exemptive order or
no-action letter issued to the relevant Relief DCO.

The no-action positions taken herein do not excuse affected persons from compliance
with any other applicable CEA requirements or the Commission’s regulations, in particular, the
applicable swap reporting requirements and clearing requirements.23 This letter and the no-
action positions taken herein represent the views of DOD only, and do not necessarily represent
the positions or views of the Commission or of any other division or office. As with all no-
action letters, DOD retains the authority to condition further, modify, suspend, terminate or
otherwise restrict the terms of the no-action positions provided herein, at its discretion.

22 ISDA requested relief on the PET fields related to swaps intended to be cleared with a Relief DCO. Should the
Relief DCO reject such swaps from clearing, the swaps would not be “Relief DCO Original Swaps” under the terms
of this letter. Therefore, the Commission uses the term Relief ITBC Swaps to clarify that the relief relating to data
fields would apply even if the Relief DCO rejects the swap for clearing
relief on the PET fields related to swaps intended to be cleared with a Relief DCO. Should the
Relief DCO reject such swaps from clearing, the swaps would not be “Relief DCO Original Swaps” under the terms
of this letter. Therefore, the Commission uses the term Relief ITBC Swaps to clarify that the relief relating to data
fields would apply even if the Relief DCO rejects the swap for clearing.
23 The applicable swap reporting requirements are set forth under Parts 43, 45, 46, and 50 of the Commission’s
regulations, 17 CFR parts 43, 45, 46 and 50, respectively. The applicable clearing requirements are set forth under
CEA section 2(h)(1), 7 U.S.C. § 2(h)(1), and Part 50 of the Commission’s regulations.
