NEW YORK — To gain transparency and efficiency in today\u2019s
\nincreasingly complex regulatory environment, Bloomberg
\nProfessional service subscribers can now access a derivatives
\nmargin calculator developed by LCH.Clearnet, Bloomberg announced
\ntoday. <\/p>\n

Bloomberg is the first financial information platform to
\nintegrate LCH.Clearnet\u2019s SwapClear Margin Approximation Risk
\nTool (SMART) to help market participants efficiently approximate
\nthe capital funding requirements needed for swaps clearing and
\ncomply with the latest Dodd-Frank mandates. <\/p>\n

\u201cInvestors can now easily calculate the capital they need to
\nclear their swap portfolios on the same platform they use for
\nanalytics, trade execution and access to clearing,\u201d said Ben
\nMacdonald, Bloomberg\u2019s Global Head of Product. \u201cThis
\ncollaboration with LCH.Clearnet is another example of our
\ncommitment to providing clients the tools they need to navigate
\na growingly complex regulatory environment.\u201d <\/p>\n

LCH.Clearnet\u2019s margin calculator is integrated with Bloomberg\u2019s
\nmulti-asset class analytics and trading platforms, making it
\neasy to anticipate, and therefore manage, how large price
\nmovements and changing market conditions will impact capital
\nneeds. Bloomberg Professional service subscribers can access the
\ntool to simulate their portfolios\u2019 exposure to risk factors and
\nperform instantaneous, consistent margin approximations, prior
\nto clearing, for no additional cost. <\/p>\n

\u201cAs a result of mandatory clearing requirements, the need for
\non-demand margin analysis is critical and accessing a
\nclearinghouse\u2019s margin calculations on the Bloomberg
\nProfessional service helps me to manage my investment decisions
\nand operations,\u201d said Matthew Lynes, Portfolio Manager at
\nAberdeen Asset Management. \u201cBloomberg continues to provide the
\nsolutions the industry needs to meet regulatory requirements and
\nmake better informed investment decisions on behalf of our
\ninvestors.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cThe integration of SMART into the Bloomberg Professional
\nservice allows market participants to easily run SwapClear\u2019s
\nmarket leading risk analytics on their portfolios and
\napproximate their margin requirements ahead of submitting their
\ntrades for clearing,\u201d said Daniel Maguire, Head of SwapClear
\nU.S. at LCH.Clearnet. \u201cThis collaboration helps participants
\nunderstand their risk, optimize their portfolios for greater
\nmargin efficiencies and meet regulatory requirements at a time
\nof significant change in the global marketplace.\u201d <\/p>\n

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
\nrequires that interest rate swaps and other derivative products
\nare traded on a swap execution facility (SEF) and centrally
\ncleared. To support clients in complying with this regulation
\nBloomberg registered and received approval from the Commodity
\nFutures Trading Commission (CFTC) to operate a multi-asset class
\nSEF starting October 2nd. More than 200 global institutions are
\nalready using Bloomberg\u2019s clearing channels to clear derivatives
\ntrades with the major clearinghouses, including LCH.Clearnet. <\/p>\n
