Operational Arrangements Working Group

The Tri-Party Repo Infrastructure Task Force released proposals addressing two sets of operational changes to current tri-party repo settlement processes for public comment. The first proposal specifies parameters to facilitate three-way trade confirmation (among lenders, borrowers, and the clearing banks). The second proposal would establish a standardized window for the settlement of maturing and new tri-party repo transactions. These changes are designed to implement the recommendations made in the Task Force’s final report, published in May, which addressed weaknesses in the infrastructure of the tri-party repo market. The Task Force is also publishing its recommended implementation schedule.

The Task Force invites feedback on the proposals. The comments received are intended to help the Task Force identify key concerns and operational considerations that need to be addressed to implement its May 2010 recommendations. The comment period ended January 14, 2011.
