United States CFTC Issues No-Enforcement Action Letter on Credit Suisse & UBS Legacy Swaps for Failure to Comply with Uncleared Swap Margin Requirements for Transferred Swaps, Legacy Swaps Entered Prior to Compliance Dates for CFTC Margin & Clearing Requirements
17th April 2025 | Hong Kong
The United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has issued a non-enforcement action letter on Credit Suisse & UBS legacy swaps for failure to comply with uncleared swap margin requirements for transferred swaps, with the legacy swaps entered prior to compliance dates for CFTC margin & clearing requirements. United States CFTC (15/4/25): “The Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s Market Participants Division and Division of Clearing and Risk today issued a no-action letter regarding the CFTC’s swap clearing and uncleared swap margin requirements. The letter is in connection with a court-supervised transfer, consistent with United Kingdom laws, of certain swaps from Credit Suisse International to UBS AG London Branch following the merger of UBS Group AG and Credit Suisse Group AG. These legacy swaps were entered into prior to the relevant compliance dates for the CFTC’s margin and clearing requirements, and, therefore, were not subject to such requirements prior to this court-supervised transfer. The no-action letter states, in connection with such transfer and subject to certain specified conditions: 1) MPD will not recommend the Commission take an enforcement action against certain of UBS AG London Branch’s swap dealer counterparties for their failure to comply with the CFTC’s uncleared swap margin requirements for such transferred swaps; and 2) DCR will not recommend the Commission take an enforcement action against UBS AG or certain of its counterparties for their failure to comply with the CFTC’s swap clearing requirement for such transferred swaps. The letter responds to a request from UBS AG.”
