The Commodity Futures Trading Commission adopted an interim final rule clarifying the scope of permissible access to swap data maintained by registered swap data repositories. The amendment explicitly restricts counterparties to anonymously executed and cleared swaps from accessing each other’s identities, clearing member information, or legal entity identifiers, ensuring compliance with statutory privacy requirements under the Commodity Exchange Act. The Commission invites public comments on this clarification through April 25, 2014, via its designated electronic and mail submission channels.
