Trade Repository Reporting and Risk Mitigation Requirements for Over-the-Counter (OTC) Derivatives Contracts

Reporting banks must report OTC derivatives to the SAMA authorized Trade Repository Operator directly, without agents, and execute a service agreement including counterparty consent. Transactions and subsequent events must be reported by T+1 23:59:59, with novations reported as early terminations and new trades. Banks must maintain trading relationship documentation, confirmations, and valuation processes, retaining records for ten years. Non-compliance risks include material disputes requiring escalation and reporting to SAMA if unresolved beyond 15 business days.
