Discussion Paper on Margin Requirements for non-Centrally Cleared Derivatives

MANU/RPRL/0125/2016

The Reserve Bank of India released a Paper on Margin Requirements for non-Centrally Cleared Derivatives. The Paper is in response to recent international calls for reforming the derivatives market to reduce risk associated with the inherent opacity derivative transactions.

Imposing margin requirements on non-centrally cleared derivatives have benefits twofold: aside from reducing disparities between centrally and non-centrally cleared derivatives, it would also promote central clearing.

Feedback and comments on the policies proposed are being received till 3 June 2016.
