Spotlight: ISDA Resolution Stay Protocol and Recovery Resolution Directive The Resolution Stay Protocol half-day symposium offers an ideal opportunity to understand the protocol, interplay with resolution regimes and implications for market participants. ISDA developed the ISDA Resolution Stay Protocol in a working group of dealer and buy-side firms, working closely with home authorities and other Financial Stability Board members, in response to a request by regulators that ISDA provide a means for amending ISDA Master Agreements to incorporate contractual recognition of limitations on closeout rights under statutory resolution regimes, on a cross-border basis. The ISDA Resolution Stay Protocol symposium is scheduled Dec. 3 in New York and Dec. 10 in London.
Immediately after the Resolution Stay Protocol symposium in London, ISDA will run another half-day symposium on the Bank Recovery Resolution Directive. This symposium compliments the Resolution Stay Protocol symposium by providing deeper insight into principal elements of the cross-border resolution regime for financial institutions that is being introduced by the EU Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive and covers the principal impact of that cross-border resolution regime for derivatives trading and documentation. The Recovery Resolution Directive symposium is scheduled Dec. 10 in London.
