Line 1: Line 1:
Front loading as applied to derivatives is a term that describes the obligation to clear centrally an [[OTC]] [[derivative instrument]] or contract that is applied retrospectively.
One billion (1,000,000,000).


It arises because there is a gap between the time that a [[CCP]] is authorised under [[EMIR]] and [[ESMA]]’s decision to mandate [[central clearing]] of certain derivatives.  During the early implementation stages of EMIR and the clearing obligation it may not be known at the time of executing a derivative trade whether it ultimately will be subject to frontloading or not.
Sometimes known colloquially as a "yard".


It is not known at the outset whether to price the transaction on the assumption that it will, or will not, be subject to central clearing during the life of the transaction.
