In 1984, in 1990 and in 2005 Congress passed laws exempting certain financial contracts from the standard provisions of the bankruptcy code. In each case, the effect of the law was to protect collateral securing the contract from those provisions of the bankruptcy code that allow a judge to review the claims of secured creditors and to protect the interests of other creditors whenever necessary.
The introduction of inequitable treatment into the bankruptcy code would be acceptable, if in fact the financial contract exemptions worked to protect the stability of the financial system. Recent experience indicates, however, that the special treatment granted to repurchase agreements and over the counter derivatives tends to reduce the stability of the financial system by encouraging collateralized interbank lending and discouraging careful analysis of the credit risk of counterparties. The bankruptcy exemptions also increase the risk that creditors will run on a financial firm and bankrupt it. Thus, the bankruptcy code has been rewritten to favor financial firms and this revision of the law has had a profoundly destabilizing effect on the financial system.

Smart Contracts in Financial Services: Getting from Hype to Reality. Reporteraser Juan José Calderón
Smart Contracts in Financial Services: Getting from Hype to Reality.
Executive Summary
The potential of smart contracts – programmable contracts that automatically execute when pre-defi ned conditions are met – is the subject of much debate and discussion in the fi nancial services industry.
Smart contracts, enabled by blockchain or distributed ledgers, have been held up as a cure for many of the problems associated with traditional fi nancial contracts, which are simply not geared up for the digital age. Reliance on physical documents leads to delays, ineffi ciencies and increases exposure to errors and fraud. Financial intermediaries, while providing interoperability for the fi nance system and reducing risk, create overhead costs for and increase compliance requirements.
In this report, we aim to cut through the speculation and hype around the potential of smart contracts. We have conducted detailed discussions with fi nancial services industry professionals, prominent smart contract startups, and academics (see Research Methodology at the end of this paper). Our study confi rms that smart contract adoption will lead to reduced risks, lower administration and service costs, and more effi cient business processes across all major segments of the fi nancial services industry. These benefi ts will accrue from technology, process redesign as well as from fundamental changes in operating models, as they require a group of fi rms to share a common view of the contract between trading parties. Consumers will benefi t from more competitive products, such as mortgage loans and insurance policies, along with simpler processes that are free of many of the hassles of today’s customer experience.

“The Dodd-Frank Act” is all over the news. It’s reportedly killing community banks, and will impact all of the banking members in this distribution in some capacity. In continuation of a February Environmental Bankers Association - Risk Management Call (EBA-RMC) John Rybak and Greg Lampe of BB&T Bank, and attorney Brad Merrill of Snell-Wilmer, will provide an explanation of what’s going on, notably with respect to Banking Vendor Management (“vetting the vendors”).
Since its passage in 2010, implementation and interpretation of the 2,323 page long Dodd-Frank Act has touched most every part of banking including how banks use vendors, particularly in the area of mortgages and consumer compliance. Five years later there remains substantial uncertainty as new rule making continues. During our call we will provide a summary of key regulatory areas every banker should be aware of in vendor management as well as some of the general results of Dodd-Frank and exposure for non-compliance.

HOW CRYPTO-TOKENS QUALIFY UNDER SWISS LAW: A COMPREHENSIVE FRAMEWORK
Blockchain technology has become a reality as part of the digitalisationof the economy. Every day, there is proof of disruptive transformations of long-standing mechanisms into new ecosystems on the blockchain. While existing market participants are in many cases overwhelmed by the new normal, the new players operate with the greatest creativity and efficiency.
There are no limits to the new ecosystems. The blockchainoffers countless possibilities of disintermediation, of participating in and transferring assets, of recordkeeping and of creating e-commerce beyond the boundaries of national currencies. And we are only at the beginning of this transformation.
Tokens created on the blockchaincan be used to represent a wide variety of instruments and processes. For example, a new means of payment can be created or indirect rights to shares, loans or access rights can be digitised. The legal qualification of the tokens is a major challenge due to the aforementioned diversity.
The important (and not so new) principle for finding your way around in this new digital environment is: “first analyse the context, then undertake the legal classification under the rules of the existing laws.” The hybrid nature of many tokens will defy the clear categories within which the law is typically structured and any attempt to commence by looking at traditional legal instruments and impose them on the tokens of the new ecosystems will therefore fail. Instead each token has to be taken apart and its components must be qualified individually.
In order to bring the tokens of the new ecosystems closer to the public, FRORIEP's Disruptive Technologies Practice Group has developed a Token Framework. In doing so, a distinction is made between cryptocurrencies, tokens giving title to monetary claims and tokens for other purposes. Tokens giving title to monetary claims are further categorisedas being either debt, equity or participation rights tokens. These subcategories stem from the financial treatment of the obligations on the balance sheet or (in the case of participation rights tokens) on the profit & loss statement of the issuer.
The following diagrams show the possible functions of tokens on the blockchainand the FRORIEP Token Framework.

We examine how recent regulatory changes (in central clearing, margin requirements, etc.) are impacting the OTC derivatives market, and causing several leading players to exit. With the spike in clearance and trading costs, a multitude of ratios show how firms are likely to adjust.
This article aims to present the concept of two-sided markets on the example of
payment card systems, which have attracted the attention of regulatory and antitrust
authorities in recent years. First, the paper offers a few insights into the basic economic
theory behind two-sided markets. Second, it presents a brief description of payment
card systems and their features. The following analysis focuses on arguments that
speak in favour of a regulatory or antitrust intervention into payment card systems.
Finally, some of the potential problems that antitrust authorities must face when
assessing two-sided markets are presented on the basis of an assessment of the
decisional practice of the UOKiK President and the European Commission.
Facing increased regulatory oversight, more banks are opting for an integrated collateral management system that facilitates collateral optimization in coordination with central clearing counterparties (CCPs).

Facing increased regulatory oversight, more banks are opting for an integrated collateral management system that facilitates collateral optimization in coordination with central clearing counterparties (CCPs).
In the last few years, the financial markets have undergone dramatic change. While some of this is down to natural evolution, much of the change can be directly attributed to new rules introduced in the wake of the 2007 crisis. Regulators, legislators and central bank governors have been determined to avert another bubble bursting or an unexpected event that could threaten markets. Lawmakers have targeted key financial practices for reform, radically altering the expectations and behavior of industry participants. The combination of the Dodd-Frank Act, European Markets Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR), MiFID ll and Basel lll signify the biggest regulatory change in decades. These reforms have resulted in major change to how financial products are traded, settled, collateralized and reported, resulting in deep and ongoing structural changes to the markets.
There is no doubt that these new rules are directly impacting buy-side firms — be they asset managers, hedge funds, insurance companies or pension funds. But while the changes have certainly brought challenges, they have also brought opportunities. Firms that can proactively evaluate structural and operational dislocations in the marketplace and tailor business models to leverage the opportunities while addressing the challenges will be in the best position to stand apart from their competitors. Revised business models call for revisions to supporting processes and systems. Buy-side firms should look to re-architect their processes and technology infrastructure, with a goal to strengthen risk control and oversight, enhance transparency and improve efficiency of front-to-back office control functions.
The credit crisis, and the regulatory response it spawned have fundamentally reshaped financial markets for buy-side firms. But while the changes have brought about challenges, they have also ushered in opportunities. The key to success will be the speed with which firms are able to understand the changing marketplace and adapt their business models to align with the changes.
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act was signed into law in 2010 and ushered
in an overhaul of the US financial regulatory system so
sweeping that many of the regulations needed to fully
implement the law are still evolving in 2012. Enacted in
response to a financial crisis described as the “worst since
the Great Depression,” this massive piece of legislation
contains 16 titles, comprises 2,319 pages in its original
form, and calls for regulators from 22 separate federal
agencies to conduct dozens of new studies and create
hundreds of new rules.
This Substance of the Standard was prepared by MHM’s
Professional Standards Group to provide a timely update
of the regulations issued through March 31, 2012 — and
those that are expected in the months to come — so you
can prepare for the challenges that lie ahead.

Real-World Assets STO + Institutional DeFi Integration
Institutional DeFi refers to tokenize real-world assets with regulatory compliance and institutional-level controls for consumer protection. One of the main benefits of Institutional DeFi is the potential to transform the traditional financial system by making it more transparent, efficient, and accessible while maintaining the necessary safeguards for investor protection and financial stability. This can lead to new products, cost reduction, and faster settlement times for financial institutions.
STO (Security Token Offering) of real-world assets involves the issuance of security tokens that represent ownership of a real-world asset, such as a share of stock, bond, or real estate property. The tokenization and securitization process is carried out by an issuer who follows the necessary regulatory requirements. These security tokens can be listed, distributed, and traded on Institutional DeFi applications to automate various processes such as trading, settlement, and custody. This allows for greater security, efficiency, transparency, and liquidity.

Regulations are integral to the banking industry, and the extent to which the bank complies with such regulations not just maintains its bottom line in terms of avoiding hefty fines, but also has a big bearing on credibility and integrity. So how do banks comply with all that is required, and save themselves from the ill-effects of non-compliance?

Understanding Dodd-Frank
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act is designed to prevent the need for any
future taxpayer bailouts of financial institutions, ending
the notion of “too big to fail”.
Why was this legislation introduced?
On 12 October 2012,
Financial institutions are perceived to be too big to fail when their collapse would have such a

Are you ready?
In the late 2000’s global financial crisis, this was – for the most part – driven by financial
institutions investing in complex derivative instruments (typically on their own behalf rather
than on behalf of customers) which subsequently turned out to lose their value rather than
appreciate. The scale of losses threatened these institutions’ ability to meet their obligations to
retail depositors.
Dodd-Frank legislation introduces steps to reinforce financial stability through improved
accountability and transparency. This required the creation of new financial regulatory
processes to protect consumers from abusive or speculative financial services practices.
Additionally, some specific rules around types of trading that specific institutions can engage
in have been introduced.
How does Dodd-Frank work?
Dodd-Frank aims to protect consumers and help prevent another financial crisis by
monitoring systemic risk and increasing government oversight of trading in complex financial
instruments (i.e. derivatives / swaps). It also widens the net in respect of which institutions
will be subject to regulatory oversight.
Although the focus is in many ways on regulating specific trading activities, Dodd-Frank also
creates, consolidates and refines the mandates of a number of existing industry bodies which
govern all aspects of the financial services industry. Specific aspects of the industry affected
include insurance, equities trading, consumer protections and mortgages.
In the UK market, the Of particular note, Dodd-Frank includes the Volcker Rule which restricts the types of

hedge funds, private equity funds etc. In other words, commercial banks cannot trade on their

Understanding Dodd Frank
What does it all mean?
As can be expected with such a broad piece of legislation, it is not reasonable to refine the
implications into a single set of compliance actions. We have identified some key areas which
have been under review in recent projects.
Personal accountability. Individuals with specific roles will take on personal
accountability for regulatory oversight. These individuals will be nominated to the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or Commodity Futures Trading Commission
(CFTC) (as appropriate). Personal accountability introduces the potential for criminal
liability in the event of gross negligence.
Reporting on swaps data and position limits. Data capture, storage and reporting
systems need to meet the new requirements for detailed and granular analysis of
multiple portfolios and risk types.
Management of counterparties. When recommending trading strategies to their
counterparties, banks must ensure their counterparties completely understand the
swaps, including all risks and rewards.
Limit monitoring. Banks need to have early warning systems in place and make a record
of all violations in limits and the actions taken to report to the regulator.
Implementation of new policies and procedures. As is typical, the legislation creates
some specific process obligations, supported by detailed procedures.
Risk reporting and management. There is a need to review existing procedures for
monitoring risks associated with swap activities including risk tolerance limits, risk
exposure reporting and counterparty policies.
Business Model. Depending on US presence and activity, substantial changes in business
model could be required, e.g. changing the volumes and types of trades done in different
jurisdictions to streamline the compliance process
Does it even matter to UK banks?
Yes. Any bank which does more than US$ 8bn worth of trades with US counterparts will need
to register as a Swap Dealer and comply with all the requirements. This introduces significant
reporting obligations, requirements to disclose certain information to the counterparts and
need to adhere to certain margin / collateral requirements.
Does it present any opportunities?
Working to be Dodd-Frank compliant creates an opportunity for banks with global presence to
use the Dodd-Frank approach as a blueprint for standardising compliance process and
reporting structures globally. This will allow banks to benefit from process standardisation
across their global presence introducing cost savings and the benefits of a common language
across operating regions.
With customers being more informed and increasingly aware of these regulations, they would
