We know there’s only eight months before 24 #LIBOR settings disappear for good and another six become non-representative. Time is short, and firms should use it wisely, says @ScottOMalia #ISDABenchmarks @ISDAConferences

More than 13,700 entities globally have adhered to ISDA 2020 #IBOR Fallbacks Protocol. This means a large portion of the derivatives market now has a vital safety net in place, based on a consistent and transparent methodology, says @ScottOMalia #ISDABenchmarks @ISDAConferences

The mid-2023 end date for most US dollar #LIBOR settings means a large chunk of existing positions will roll off naturally, but firms shouldn’t assume they can take their foot off the pedal, says @ScottOMalia #ISDABenchmarks @ISDAConferences

We now have clarity following @TheFCA March 5 announcement, which effectively heralded the death of #LIBOR. We know for sure which LIBOR settings will end on which date, and which tenors will become non-representative, says @ScottOMalia #ISDABenchmarks @ISDAConferences

With many firms in #APAC likely to come into scope of phases 5 and 6 of the initial margin rules, market participants need to understand the legal and regulatory implications of using different types of securities to meet the #IM requirements

The FCA will only have the power to require publication of synthetic Libor for a limited period of time, so agreeing amendments between counterparties remains very important. It’s absolutely not the right strategy to rely on legislative solutions, says Anne-Laure Condat @TheFCA

Under the proposed Financial Services Bill, the FCA would have the power to restrict new use of a critical benchmark that is ceasing. Subject to consultation, that could apply to new use of US dollar LIBOR by UK supervised entities after end-2021, says Anne-Laure Condat @TheFCA

The fallbacks create a really strong economic relationship between each IBOR and its corresponding RFR and they provide great operational arrangements if you move in an IBOR swap beyond an index cessation, says Phil Whitehurst @LCH_Clearing

The end of 2021 remains important for US dollar LIBOR, as well as other currencies, says Heather Pilley @TheFCA. That's because US regulators have made clear there should be no new use of US dollar LIBOR after the end of 2021, except for risk management purposes

Markets should focus on transition away from LIBOR. The working groups and official sector bodies have set out clear timelines and other materials to plan a smooth transition. Recent announcements confirm the importance of these preparations, says Heather Pilley @TheFCA

The market now has absolute certainty on the future of LIBOR, which provides an opportunity for firms to move from LIBOR to alternative rates, says Timothy Bowler, president at IBA @ICE_Markets
ISDA Wed 24 Mar 2021 13:29

The March 5 LIBOR announcements show a clear way forward on LIBOR, including on which tenors there will be a cessation and when. Taken altogether, this will set the stage for market participants to continue their remaining transition activities, says Heather Pilley @TheFCA
