OTC Derivatives—A Primer on Market Infrastructure and Regulatory Policy

Ivana Ruffini and Robert Steigerwald

Economic Perspectives, 2014, issue Q III, 80-99

Abstract: In this article, we discuss some recent developments relating to the regulation of derivatives markets, specifically the Group of Twenty (G-20) mandates, and examine the infrastructure that supports derivatives markets (including both the trade execution and post-trade clearing and settlement processes). Then we identify some of the policy issues raised by the G-20 market structure mandates. To provide a foundation for that discussion, first we explain some key concepts and terms.
