CFTC's Division of Market Oversight Issues Temporary No-Action Relief to Non-Clearing Swap Dealers to Comply with Large Trader Reporting Requirements for Physical Commodity Swaps and Swaptions
The CFTC Division of Market Oversight today announced the issuance of temporary no-action relief for reporting by non-clearing member swap dealers under the CFTC's large trader reporting requirements for physical commodity swaps and swaptions. This temporary relief is intended to provide sufficient time for non-clearing member swap dealers to transition to fully compliant reporting by 60 days after the CFTC's deadline for entities to apply to register as swap dealers. Parties that are intending to rely on the exemption must so notify the CFTC as provided in the relief.
