Bill overview
The Certainty for End-Users Act aims to clarify and streamline the rules surrounding derivatives trading, particularly for ‘end-users’ who use swaps for hedging purposes. It revises the definition of a ‘financial entity’ to provide more clarity and establish a de minimis exception for smaller swap activities, reducing the need for some swaps to be cleared. The bill also clarifies how affiliated non-financial entities can utilize the end-user exception and harmonizes margin requirements for certain entities, including insurance companies.
