The Commodity Futures Trading Commission amends margin requirements for uncleared swaps to exempt certain seeded funds from initial margin posting obligations for up to three years from their trading inception date. The rule also removes the asset transfer restriction on money market and similar funds, allowing their securities to qualify as eligible initial margin collateral, and updates the haircut schedule for such collateral. These changes apply to swap dealers and major swap participants subject to the Commission's margin rules.
