The report, Summary of Responses to the ISDA 2020 Consultation on How to Implement Pre-cessation Fallbacks in Derivatives, was prepared for ISDA by The Brattle Group and confirms the preliminary findings published by ISDA in April.
The results of the consultation indicate that a significant majority of respondents support including pre-cessation and permanent cessation fallbacks without optionality or flexibility in the amended 2006 ISDA Definitions for LIBOR and in a single protocol for including the updated definitions in legacy trades.
Following these results, ISDA expects to publish amendments to the 2006 ISDA Definitions to incorporate the fallbacks for new trades in July. A protocol will simultaneously be launched to allow participants to incorporate the revisions into legacy trades if they choose too. Both will come into effect before the end of the year.
