Overview of the regulatory reform agenda

› G20 Commitments

All standard OTC derivative contracts should be traded on exchanges or electronic trading platforms, where

appropriate, and cleared through central counterparties by end-2012 at the latest; and

OTC derivative contracts should be reported to trade repositories and that non-centrally cleared contracts should

be subject to higher capital requirements.

› U.S. Regulation – the “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act”

› European initiatives:

European Regulation on OTC derivatives, CCPs and trade repositories (EMIR):

‒ ‘clearing eligibility’ – compulsory clearing of certain OTC derivatives

‒ new standards for clearing houses

‒ establishment of trade repositories

MiFID Review

› Review of Basel Capital Accord

› CPSS/IOSCO Principles for Financial Market Infrastructure

› Proposals on CCP Resolution

Swaps to Futures Transition

› ICE conducted an extensive review and analysis of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer

Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) in the U.S. and parallel laws presently being drafted in Europe and Asia. In

order to determine how these rules will affect swaps participants across the U.S., Europe, and Asia and have

also received substantial input from many ICE Participants. Based on this analysis, ICE concluded that, once

implemented, these laws and regulations are likely to increase the cost and complexity for swaps market

participants relative to futures markets participants.

› ICE’s announced its intention to convert each existing OTC cleared Energy swap and option product and open

interest to an economically equivalent future or option contract listed on either the ICE Futures US or ICE

Futures Europe exchange.

› The transition occurred over the weekend of 13/14 October 2012 in line with the implementation of the Swap

Dealer/Swap Market Participant rules.

Impact of EMIR on CCPs and operating processes

› ICE has contributed extensively to the consultation process in relation to global regulatory reform, including

the Dodd-Frank Act, EMIR and CPSS-IOSCO Principles. Core concerns expressed include level of

prescription and possibility of regulatory arbitrage.

› Key areas of change:

1. CCP rules and operating procedures:

Re-authorisation process

Operating structures and Governance

Risk Management standards

Acceptable collateral and liquidity risk management

Customer protection models

2. Trade reporting to Trade Repositories.

3. Implementation Timetable.

4. Impact on capital charges.

5. Impact of areas of regulatory variance.

Q3 2013

Q2 2013 Q3 2013 Q4 2013 Q1 2014 Q2 2014

EMIR – Current Implementation Timeline

15 Mar 13 – 15 Sep 13: EU/EEA CCPs have 6 months to submit their application for authorisation under EMIR.

15 Mar 13 – 15 Apr 13: NCAs initial notifications of OTC derivatives already cleared by CCPs in their jurisdiction.

CCP registration

Trade reporting

15 Apr 13 – 15 Mar 14: National competent authorities (NCAs) have 6 months to decide whether to authorise after determining application is complete.

Mandatory clearing

15 Mar 13: First date TR can send application for authorisation to ESMA.

25 Jun 13: First possible registration of TR (ESMA have 20 working days to determine completeness, then 40 working days to make a decision once complete. Registration comes into effect 5 working day after decision).

23 Sep 13: First possible reporting start date for IR and credit (90 calendar days after first TR registered).

1 Jan 14: First possible reporting start date for commodities and other asset classes (assuming TR is registered for the specific asset class before 1 Oct).

15 Mar 14: Last possible registration date for existing CCPs.

16 Apr 13 – 16 Mar 14: NCAs notify of additional OTC derivatives cleared in their jurisdiction as they authorise CCPs.

16 Oct 13 – 16 Sep 14: ESMA will have 6 months to submit draft RTS on the class of OTC derivatives subject to clearing obligation and effective dates.

› EMIR requires CCPs to keep separate records and accounts so its Clearing Members can distinguish assets

and positions:

held for the clearing member from those of its clients - "Omnibus Client Segregation"; and

held for one client from those held for other clients – “Individual Client Segregation.”

› Clearing Members are then also required to offer these client protection options to their clients. In relation to

Individual Client Segregation, where a client elects for this level of protection, their positions and margin will

be held in an account at the CCP together with any excess margin.

› ICE is proposing to introduce the following segregation models under EMIR:

Segregated Client Account: Omnibus Client Segregation (Net Margin for ETD);

Non-Segregated Client Account (TTCA): Omnibus Client Segregation (Net Margin for ETD);

Individual Segregation through Sponsored Principal Model.

Alternative (Margin-flow co-mingled) Individual Segregated Account.

› Additionally, ICE Clear Europe is currently discussing with various custody agents and securities

depositories the possibility of enhancing protection of customer assets through tri-party, quad-party or

similar arrangements.
