On September 29, 2014, the CFTC's Division of Swap Dealer and Intermediary Oversight announced that Swap Dealers ("SDs") and Major Swap Participants ("MSPs") may furnish risk exposure reports to the CFTC through WinJammer, instead of filing via the CFTC's web portal. CFTC Regulation 23.600(c)(2)(ii) requires SDs and MSPs to furnish risk exposure reports to the CFTC. Today's announcement by the CFTC clarifies that, because risk exposure reports submitted by SDs and MSPs through WinJammer will be furnished to the CFTC automatically, SDs and MSPs are not required to re-submit the same risk exposure reports to the CFTC through the CFTC web portal.
