Description: This program examines the most recent issues a practitioner needs to be aware of with respect to end-users and derivatives. These include how the ISDA Resolution Stay Protocol and its possible expansion affects end-users and what impact the Protocol has on the bankruptcy process. For example, what happens if a swap dealer counterparty goes insolvent? Also examined are what commercial end-users need to know to trade uncleared swaps, what is mandatory clearing, and when and how can end-users claim an exemption from mandatory clearing. Current Topics for End-Users of Swaps addresses these and other essentials to a legal practice intersecting with derivatives. No previous experience with derivatives law is required for this program.
