Swap Clearing Requirement To Account for the Transition From LIBOR and Other IBORs to Alternative Reference Rates
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (Commission or CFTC) is seeking information and public comment on how the Commission could amend its swap clearing requirement to address the cessation of certain interbank offered rates (IBORs) (e.g., the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR)) used as benchmark reference rates and the market adoption of alternative reference rates; namely, overnight, nearly risk-free reference rates (RFRs). The Commission is requesting input from market participants and all interested members of the public on aspects of the Commission's swap clearing requirement that may be affected by the transition from certain IBORs to alternative reference rates.
