Abstract: Section 731 of Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act, Pub L. No. 111-203, 124 Stat. 1376 (2010)) amended the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) by adding sections 4s(f), 4s(g), and 4s(i), among others. Pursuant to this authority, the Commission promulgated regulations 23.500-23.505, which obligate swap dealers (SDs) and major swap participants (MSPs) to develop and retain written swap trading relationship documentation. The final regulations also establish requirements for SDs and MSPs regarding swap confirmation, portfolio reconciliation, and portfolio compression. Confirmation, portfolio reconciliation, and portfolio compression are important, post-trade processing mechanisms for reducing risk and improving operational efficiency. *Note: The collections of information under OMB control numbers 3038-0068, 3038-0083, and 3038-0088 are now consolidated under OMB control number 3038-0088, and OMB control numbers 3038-0068 and 3038-0083 have been withdrawn as of July 5, 2022. Concurrently with this change, the Commission has changed the name associated with OMB control number 3038-0088 to “Swap Documentation.” While the collection has been renewed until June 30, 2025, this amended supporting statement is now submitted to correct the aggregate burden hours for the consolidated collection, and to officially affirm the discontinuance of OMB control numbers 3038-0068 and 3038-0083.
