Securities and Futures (OTC Derivative Transactions – Clearing and Record Keeping Obligations and Designation of Central Counterparties) Rules

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority and the Securities and Futures Commission issued these rules to implement a mandatory clearing regime for over-the-counter derivative transactions.
