Since September 2016, the initial margin (IM) requirements for non-cleared derivatives has created rapid changes in the margin framework. With the original IM deadline being delayed with an additional 12-month extension due to Covid‑19, the phased-in rules still bring significant impact to the global financial market. 

The virtual course aims to provide an in-depth understanding on margin reform, in particular the latest requirements for IM, including the operating model, the calculation methodology and documentation, as well as how to address the key challenges of the implementation. The live workshop also covers the overview of the ISDA Standard Initial Margin Model (SIMM™) and its practical examples.
