On October 27, 1993, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) issued BC-277, Risk Management of Financial Derivatives, to provide guidance on risk management practices to institutions engaging in financial derivatives activities.

Since that time, the OCC has received numerous questions about the guidance in that circular. The attached document answers the most frequently asked questions and provides greater detail on the guidance in BC-277.

For additional information, please contact the Capital Markets Division, Office of the Chief National Bank Examiner, (202) 649-6360.
