The Bloomberg Swap Data Repository, under the entity BSDR LLC, a subsidiary of Bloomberg LP, has received provisional approval to become the fourth SDR registered with the CFTC for the newly regulated Swaps segment.
The CFTC has announced that the application submitted by BSDR LLC, a subsidiary of Bloomberg LP, has been approved provisionally as a Swap Data Repository (SDR), according to a CFTC press release last week, and subsequent announcement from Bloomberg.com regarding the updated status.
The application was submitted last year, as reported by Forex Magnates when Bloomberg filed its SEF application, and subject to the 180-day processing period by the CFTC for SDR applications.
BSDR LLC, becomes the fourth SDR after ICE Tradevault, CME Group SDR and DTCC Data Repository, to be provisionally approved by the CFTC, and registered to be able to trade in interest rate, equity, credit, foreign exchange, and other commodity asset classes.
Bloomberg was First SEF and now Fourth SDR
The purpose of an SDR under new regulatory mandates helps to provide the public with a central repository to access post-trade data on multi-asset derivatives information, and SDRs like Bloomberg's BSDR subsidiary, would help further promote the transparency and standardization in the swaps market that are the goals of the new regulatory changes for Swaps pursuant to section 21 of the Commodity Exchange Act and section 49.3(b) of CFTC regulations.
With the new Swap Data Repositories underway, a once opaque market has now become more disclosed with prices recorded to a centralized tape for a reported $600 trillion market. However, Bloomberg noted that it is continuing to work with CFTC staff to satisfy certain conditions and plans to be operational in the near future for its SDR subsidiary.
In a video series yesterday hosted by Bloomberg's Thomas Keen that examined the impact of swaps in the market during 2013, reference was made that nearly 70 percent of all swaps are now centrally cleared, and how in 2014 the focus of reform turns from clearing to execution and transparency, as per the description.
Trade Repositories to Help Make Post-Trade SEF Flow More Transparent
Bloomberg's Swap Execution Facilty (SEF) will be reporting required post-trade data back to its SDR, BSDR LLC.
More and more, swaps will be “Made Available to Trade” (MAT) on Swap Execution Facilities (SEFs), such as the recent request made by Javelin's SEF in its latest request to the CFTC for a MAT application. As this continues, the last sale information of trades will be reported to and disseminated to the public from Swap Data Repositories, and re-posted in aggregated reports from the CFTC, as well as facilitated through 3rd party service providers of post-trade reporting solutions. The above video panel discussed the change in CFTC leadership, potential consolidation of SEFs, and major regulatory trends to keep watch of.
Bloomberg's Swap Execution Facility (SEF) was the world's first to receive CFTC approval, and its SDR application is now the fourth such provisionally approved SDR, as noted above.
For now, according to the CFTC, provisional registration may be granted where the applicant is in substantial compliance with requirements of registration but where a Commission order has not been issued, and further describes that an applicant is in substantial compliance with the standards for registration if the SDR:
Is appropriately organized
Has the capacity to ensure the prompt, accurate and reliable performance of its functions as a SDR
Complies with the applicable provisions of the CEA
Can operate in a fair, equitable and consistent manner
Has completed its application on Form SDR and submitted any supplemental information requested by staff
Has demonstrated compliance with each of the SDR core principles
The CFTC began reporting swap data in the beginning of 2013, and release the weekly figures every Wednesday. The CFTC Swaps Report represents only those swaps that are reported to the CFTC’s registered SDRs by swap market participants. The CFTC Swaps Report currently incorporates data from three SDRs (CME Group SDR, DTCC Data Repository, and ICE Trade Vault) but noted that additional SDRs could be incorporated in the future, such as data from the newly approved BDSR LLC from Bloomberg.
Forex Swaps Market
Data from the latest quarterly report from the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) depicts the percentage share of centrally cleared swap transactions, per currency, reflected in the latest BIS quarterly survey in December 2013.
Interest rate swaps however, continue to dominate the market share of volumes in both notional amounts outstanding and gross market values. Lch.Clearnet, via its SwapClear service for - as the name implies - clearing swaps through a centralized clearer,handles a significant amount of U.S and global flows in this segment.
The CFTC describes the FX asset class, in the context of these prepared reports, as including only those transactions that involve the exchange of two different currencies on a specific date at a fixed rate that is agreed upon at the inception of the contract covering the exchange, as well as the reverse exchange of those two currencies at a later date (hence swap aspect of the trade), and at a fixed rate that is agreed upon at the inception of the contract covering the exchange.
For foreign exchange swaps, the estimated gross notional outstanding volume of swap transactions, across forwards, swaps, options and NDFs, as reported by the CFTC, stands at 31,450,000 million of USD which is $31 trillion weekly for the weeks reported through January 3, 2014 (from December, as seen in the excerpt below). The number has not changed as it remains an “estimate” for now, and the swap reports for FX are covered for 6 major currencies and all other currencies fall into an aggregated value. The reports are expected to contain actual figures -rather than estimates- as trade data reporting gets underway.
