Abstract:
Commission Regulations 39.12, 39.13, 39.14, 39.15, 39.16 and 39.18 establish risk management requirements for registered derivatives clearing organizations (“DCOs”). Regulation 39.3 requires any person seeking to register as a DCO to submit a completed Form DCO as provided in the appendix to Part 39, accompanied by all applicable exhibits. The Commission will use the information in this collection to assess compliance of DCOs and DCO applicants with requirements for DCOs prescribed in the Commodity Exchange Act and Commission regulations. Part 39 of the Commission’s regulations establishes regulatory requirements for derivatives clearing organizations (“DCOs”). The Commission is proposing regulations that would permit non-U.S. clearing organizations that do not pose substantial risk to the U.S. financial system to register with the Commission, yet comply with the core principles applicable to registered DCOs through compliance with their home country regulatory regime, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The information that would be collected under these proposed regulations is necessary for the Commission to determine whether a clearing organization qualifies for DCO registration pursuant to the alternative compliance procedures, to evaluate its continued eligibility for such status, to review compliance by the DCO subject to alternative compliance with any conditions the Commission has established, or to conduct oversight of U.S. persons and the swaps that are cleared by or for U.S. persons through the DCO subject to alternative compliance. The Commission is also proposing to reduce the number of registered DCOs subject to Part 39 reporting and recordkeeping requirements due to the proposed alternative compliance option.

Short Statement:
The proposal by the Commission would amend part 39 of its regulations to establish a regulatory framework within which the Commission may register under certain conditions a non-U.S. clearing organization in connection with the clearing of swaps. The proposal sets forth new reporting requirements pursuant to the application process for DCO registration with alternative compliance, and ongoing compliance with the conditions of such registration. Because several registered DCOs may convert to the proposed alternative compliance status, the Commission is reducing the number of registered DCOs in the current information collection.
