  4. What is being done?Services for OTC Derivatives

  5. Why are services provided? Markets must be automated, efficient and secure; unfortunately, the OTC market has weaknesses in its daily operations. According to ISDA (International Swaps and Derivatives Association) studies the level of automation in the procedures is very low and numerous errors are made in both the Front and Back offices.

  6. What type of services shall be provided? Electronic confirmation One of the participants sends the information and the counterparty verifies the terms in a web site; and if they are found to be correct, the operation is considered to be completed. Cash flow calculation and the settlement of payments The data dealing with the operations is used to determine each participant’s payment obligations. Once the cash flows have been determined, the participant has the option of making the payments using the same platform..

  7. What type of services shall be provided? Management of events An OTC derivative can undergo many changes during its lifetime. Said changes may be reflected in the economic terms, and/or in the parties involved. This service shall be responsible for managing these changes, confirming that the data contained in the electronic registration is always updated.

  8. What types of services shall be provided? Bilateral management of collateral It is a service which provides for the mitigation of counterparty operations risk by using collateral. This service automates the calculation processes for margin calls, as well as the transfer of securities in order to cover said calls; based on an approach of bilateral relationships, which are managed and structured independently.

  10. Data Repository – Concept and registration A SWAP data repository is an organization that receives and maintains data or filings with respect of transactions, positions, terms and conditions of swaps that have been traded by third parties in order to provide an up to date servicing of the filings and maintenance of the data for said instruments.. The repository shall give transparency to the market, and it shall provide sufficient and reliable data to the market, the regulatory authorities and to the public in general. Any organization willing to provide SWAP data repository services must register with the CFTC as a SDR (SWAP Data Repository) before commencing operations.

  11. Data Repository Responsibilities Guarantee uninterrupted, and on real time access to the itemized information (per transaction) They must maintain the data during 5 years, counting from the maturity of the transaction The filed data shall be protected by all confidentiality provisions (similar to the stock exchange secrecy) The organizations that must report to foreign repositories shall be able to do so, if the foreign repository has been approved by the Mexican regulators. Local data repositories shall be able to provide data to foreign authorities, if said authorities have a signed agreement with the Mexican regulators. The tariffs shall be dependent on the repositories’ operating costs with the regulators having the capacity to make recommendations and to order any modifications The authorities are currently evaluating weather they will grant authorizations or charters. In order to make the applications it is necessary to have a draft deed and the corporate purpose must be, “to be a data repository organization”, and once the authorization or charter is granted there will be a time limit of 180 calendar days for its incorporation. It must commence operations within six months after its incorporation Relationships with Foreign Data Repositories Tariffs Authorizations / Charter

  12. Data Repository Activities and Services The repository shall perform the following activities: A. Recording and maintenance of data (The minimum amount of information shall be determined by the regulators) B. Provide data to the regulators, the market and the general public C. Issue certificates for confirmed transactions The following activities shall require approval (The regulators are evaluating the risk involved, and we should recommend that these activities be entrusted to other organizations, except with the confirmation of transactions D. Reconciliation and confirmation F. Management of bilateral collateral agreements G. Cash flow calculations, settlement of payments and the management of rights or liabilities The Mexican financial and non financial institutions must file transaction by transaction (hedge and notional) performed in regular or OTC markets, as well as any amendments to the economic terms or counterparties which modify the risk exposure. It will be possible to file through a counterparty, exchange, electronic trading or another participant. The institutions that are bound by this requirement must file their standardized transactions and modifications in real time and those that are not standardized by the closing of the day when they were confirmed or modified.

Any Clearing House that intends to provide clearing services for futures contracts, options on futures contracts or swaps must register with the CFTC as a DCO (Derivatives Clearing Organization) before it commence operations.
