Sec Cryptocurrency Joint Readout of Principals’ Meeting of U.S. and UK Authorities Regarding Central Counterparty Resolution

Senior officials from the Securities and Exchange Commission, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Federal Reserve Board, and Bank of England convened a hybrid meeting today to discuss certain issues relating to the resolution of a central counterparty (CCP). This meeting was one of a regular series of senior-level meetings held since 2017 to share views on CCP resolution and review the progress of an ongoing program of joint work among the agencies.

Today’s meeting was an opportunity to review recent joint work undertaken by the agencies, in particular the information sharing and communications arrangements to support resolution planning for U.S. and UK CCPs. Senior officials also confirmed priorities for future work, which will include continuing to share analyses and discussing policy formulation in relation to CCP resolution.
