CFTC Delays Variation Margin Compliance for Uncleared Swaps Until September 2017 | Practical Law
The CFTC has issued relief delaying the upcoming March 1, 2017 deadline for compliance with its Dodd-Frank variation margin (VM) rules for uncleared swaps until September 1, 2017. Note that this relief applies only to entities subject to CFTC margin rules. The analogous deadline for entities subject to the US prudential margin rules has not been extended as of this time.
