Effective Date: Final Margin Rule

CFTC issues a final rule to amend the margin requirements for uncleared swaps for swap dealers (SD) and major swap participants (MSP) for which there is not a prudential regulator (CFTC Margin Rule). The final rule amends the CFTC Margin Rule to permit the application of a minimum transfer amount (MTA) of up to $50,000 for each separately managed account (SMA) of a legal entity that is a counterparty to an SD or MSP in an uncleared swap transaction and to permit the application of separate MTAs for initial margin and variation margin.
