In anticipation of the ISDA 2014 Definition industry-wide implementation, CDSClear would like to share with you a thought-leadership paper covering business critical information including:

  • How will your CDS activities change?
  • What are the notable modifications to the current regime, and how does this impact you and your organization?
  • What are the important timelines?
  • How will the market look post implementation?
  • What can CDSClear do to help you manage the transition?

What are the 2014 Definitions?
The 2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions were published on 21st February 2014, as the new market standards for CDS transactions. The 2014 Definitions are the result of a comprehensive review and constitute a major update of the 2003 Definitions, with the goal to improve product mechanics in light of new occurrences in the market (such as bail-ins), and also incorporate some “lessons learned” from the market experience since 2009. Trading and industry-wide implementation of the 2014 Definitions is scheduled to begin on 22 September 2014.
