Christopher Faimali, ISDA London, +44 20 3808 9736, cfaimali@isda.org ISDA Create is an online solution developed by Linklater`s in-house technology start-up, Nakhoda, available to ISDA members and non-members alike. For more information about ISDA Create, including fact sheets, webinars/videos, and presentations, visit the ISDA Create InfoHub website. For more information, please contact isdacreate@isda.org. In addition, the inclusion of the ISDA clause library will lead to greater standardization of how companies negotiate and agree on provisions when negotiating a framework contract, which will make contract negotiations more efficient and improve the consistency and accuracy of data on legal agreements. The library of isda clauses will be updated over time to reflect changes in the market and legal practices, and these changes will be added to ISDA Create. “More than 30 years ago, the introduction of the ISDA Framework Agreement brought greater standardisation and efficiency to the derivatives market. With the digitization of this basic document, we are now taking another big step towards increasing efficiency. The merger of the ISDA Framework Agreement and the ISDA Covenant Library on ISDA Create means that, for the first time, market participants can negotiate the various provisions of this agreement online and automatically use the resulting legal data electronically,” said Katherine Tew Darras, General Counsel at ISDA. Nick Sawyer, ISDA London, +44 20 3808 9740, nsawyer@isda.org The ISDA Framework Agreement is a framework agreement that sets out the terms and conditions between parties wishing to trade OTC derivatives. There are two major versions that are still widely used on the market: the 1992 ISDA Framework Agreement (multi-currency – cross-border) and the 2002 ISDA Framework Agreement. The most important thing to remember is that the ISDA framework agreement is a clearing agreement and all transactions depend on each other. Therefore, a default value under a transaction counts as the default value among all transactions. Paragraph 1(c) describes the concept of the single agreement and is crucial as it forms the basis for closing compensation.

The intent is that when a failure event occurs, all transactions are terminated without exception. The concept of closing compensation prevents a liquidator from choosing, i.e. making payments for profitable transactions for his bankrupt client and refusing to do so in the context of unprofitable transactions.

The work of the Clauses Library, which was undertaken to collect, deconstruct, categorize and mark the most commonly used clauses in the industry, resulted in a very useful and detailed paper version of the Clauses Library published on the ISDA website. However, it is the implementation of the covenant library in the ISDA Framework Agreement on ISDA Create that brings the covenant library to life and clearly emphasizes the opportunities offered by technology,” said Doug Donahue, Partner at Linklaters.
