Self-Regulatory Organizations; ICE
Clear Credit LLC; Order Approving
Proposed Rule Change Relating to the
ICC Clearing Rules and ICC Exercise
Procedures
January 20, 2021.
I. Introduction
On November 19, 2021, ICE Clear
Credit LLC (‘‘ICC’’) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’), pursuant to Section
19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the ‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4,2
a proposed rule change to revise Rule
26R–319 of the ICC Clearing Rules
(‘‘Rules’’) and the ICC Exercise
Procedures (‘‘Exercise Procedures’’) 3 in
connection with the clearing of credit
default index options (‘‘Index
Swaptions’’). The proposed rule change
was published for comment in the
Federal Register on December 7, 2021.4
The Commission did not receive
comments regarding the proposed rule
change. For the reasons discussed
below, the Commission is approving the
proposed rule change.
II. Description of the Proposed Rule
Change
A. Background
Pursuant to an Index Swaption, one
party (the ‘‘Swaption Buyer’’) has the
right (but not the obligation) to cause
the other party (the ‘‘Swaption Seller’’)
to enter into an index credit default
swap transaction at a pre-determined
strike price on a specified expiration
date on specified terms. In the case of
Index Swaptions cleared by ICC, the
underlying index credit default swap is
limited to certain CDX and iTraxx index
credit default swaps that are accepted
for clearing by ICC, and which would be
automatically cleared by ICC upon
exercise of the Index Swaption by the
Swaption Buyer in accordance with its
terms.
B. Revisions to Rule 26R–319
ICC Rule 26R–319 describes what
happens upon the exercise of an Index
Swaption. ICC Rule 26R–319 consists of
three parts: 26R–319(a), 26R–319(b), and
26R–319(c). 26R–319(a) applies when a
Swaption Buyer effectively exercises an
Index Swaption and the underlying
index is not subject to a restructuring
due to a credit event, while (b) and (c)
apply when an Index Swaption is
effectively exercised and the underlying
index is subject to a restructuring due to
a credit event.
Under 26R–319(a), upon the effective
exercise of an Index Swaption, a
contract in the form of the underlying
index comes into effect between the
Swaption Buyer and ICC and an exactly
1 15
U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
CFR 240.19b–4.
