ISDA Protocols

Compliance with CFTC and SEC rules for swaps and SBS has been facilitated by ISDA through the publication of protocols that are available to all market participants.  Information about current protocols can be found at: http://www2.isda.org/functional-areas/protocol-management/open-protocols/ and we expect that additional protocols will be published in the future.  We are adherents to many of these protocols and may request your adherence to the same protocols as a condition of doing business with you.
