U.S. regulators have recommended two sets of regulations for margin requirements in swap transactions, Bloomberg reports. End-users will evade margin requirements in swaps with non-bank dealers or major swap participants under a proposal approved by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. A joint proposal by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Federal Reserve and three other regulators may force end-users to post margin in swaps with banks. The proposals may require airlines, large manufacturers and other commercial end-users to set aside money to decrease risk in certain trades.
