In all my earlier charts I had assumed ICE would act as a Trade Repository (TR) for the trades within the scope of it’s CCP, but no, the registration goes much wider. I wonder why ICE got there first and not DTCC? Anyone know?
ICE Trade Vault, LLC was provisionally registered as a swap data repository for the interest rate, credit, foreign exchange, and other commodity asset classes.

Thanks, useful link. I assume DTCC will become a registered TR soon. Bill
