Nonetheless, regulators recognize that the ISDA Fallbacks Protocol is not the only way to tackle the issue, adds Heather Pilley @TheFCA. In some cases, a more tailored approach may be necessary @ISDAConferences

Firms with material non-cleared IBOR derivatives exposures should consider signing the ISDA Fallbacks Protocol, says Heather Pilley @TheFCA. If they don't adhere, firms should be ready to answer questions on how they will deal with this risk from their supervisor @ISDAConferences

Stay tuned to the Understanding the New IBOR Fallbacks virtual conference for in-depth panels on the ISDA Fallbacks Supplement and protocol. Check the ISDA website for details @ISDAConferences

We’re nearing a point now when the endgame for the IBORs is going to be upon us and you want to be making progress towards that. After end 2021, nothing is guaranteed so you really need to be well on your way, says Nate Wuerffel @NewYorkFed #isdabenchmarks @ISDAConferences

This removes a big hurdle – if all their counterparties have already signed, it avoids the risk they might bifurcate their books by adhering too, says Tom Wipf @MorganStanley #isdabenchmarks @ISDAConferences
ISDA Mon 09 Nov 2020 14:39

The early adherence to the ISDA Fallbacks Protocol during the escrow period means buy-side firms can see if their bank counterparties have already adhered, says Tom Wipf @MorganStanley
ISDA Mon 09 Nov 2020 14:39

Asked whether the industry is on track to meet the end-2021 deadline for LIBOR transition, Tom Wipf says "largely, yes". Large institutions in particular have engaged deeply and education and client outreach is well under way, he adds @ISDAConferences

There has been tremendous progress on benchmark transition this year which has been quite impressive given the pandemic and how much it has affected every aspect of business and life, says Nate Wuerffel @NewYorkFed #isdabenchmarks @ISDAConferences

With robust fallbacks in place, market participants should have greater confidence and capacity to focus on voluntary transition. Building momentum and liquidity in alternative rates is a priority for the whole market, says Tew Darras #isdabenchmarks @ISDAConferences
ISDA Mon 09 Nov 2020 14:09

The ISDA Fallbacks Protocol will enable market participants to incorporate the revisions into legacy non-cleared trades with other counterparties that also adhere to the protocol. As of today, over 470 entities have adhered to the protocol, including banks and buy-side firms

Fallbacks aren’t designed to be a primary means of transitioning from IBORs, but they do mean a critical safety net will be in place for those participants that still have exposure to IBORs when a cessation or non-representativeness announcement is made, says Tew Darras
ISDA Mon 09 Nov 2020 14:09

Fallbacks mitigate the systemic risk that would arise from the cessation of a key IBOR and, as such, they will be absolutely critical in the months ahead, says Tew Darras #isdabenchmarks @ISDAConferences
ISDA Mon 09 Nov 2020 14:04

The launch of the IBOR Fallbacks Supplement and protocol is the culmination of four years’ work and a major milestone in the transition from LIBOR, says Katherine Tew Darras #isdabenchmarks @ISDAConferences

Cash issuance in RFRs could be key to unlocking liquidity in derivatives, says Subadra Rajappa, head of US rates strategy @SocieteGenerale. “You have a very robust start in floating rate notes, but you need to see the origination of loans and mortgages linked to SOFR.”

Benchmark reform efforts are now reaching the “point of execution” in the US, Tom Wipf, vice chairman of institutional securities @MorganStanley and chair of the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, tells The Swap, ISDA’s new podcast

We think CCPs should make margin models more conservative to reduce pro-cyclicality, says Samantha DeZur @blackrock. This might result in higher margin during ‘peacetime’, but we think the trade-off would be worth it @ISDAConferences
