ISDA Master Agreement

An ISDA Master Agreement standardizes derivatives trading relationships, defining netting, collateral, and termination terms. This playbook assists counsel in managing counterparty risk and regulatory compliance under derivatives frameworks.

Confidentiality & Reporting

Why This Matters: Balanced confidentiality and reporting protocols protect proprietary data while ensuring stakeholders have the information needed to monitor risks.

Negotiation strategy

If you're the Party A:

Ensure that confidentiality obligations are clearly defined and include necessary carve-outs for regulatory disclosures. Negotiate for regular reporting intervals that align with internal review processes.

If you're the Party B:

Advocate for confidentiality terms that protect proprietary information while allowing for necessary disclosures under legal obligations. Propose reporting formats that are efficient and manageable.

Essential elements

1

Confidentiality Obligations

Protects sensitive information.
2

Regulatory Disclosure Carve-Out

Allows legal disclosures.
3

Reporting Requirements

Action framework

ACCEPT

Propose edits when confidentiality terms are too restrictive or reporting intervals are impractical.

EDIT

Reject clauses that do not allow for necessary legal disclosures or impose unreasonable reporting burdens.

ADD

Add language to clarify reporting formats or to include specific regulatory carve-outs.

PRO TIP

Ensure that all confidentiality obligations are no less stringent than those required by law.

Real-world examples

FAVORABLE

Comprehensive Confidentiality Clause

"Each party agrees to keep confidential all information received from the other party that is marked as confidential or that should reasonably be understood to be confidential, except as required by law or regulation, or as necessary to perform obligations under this agreement."
NEUTRAL

Standard Regulatory Disclosure

"Notwithstanding the confidentiality obligations set forth above, either party may disclose confidential information to the extent required by applicable law, regulation, or legal process."
UNFAVORABLE

Overly Broad Confidentiality

"All information exchanged between the parties shall be deemed confidential, with no exceptions for legal disclosures."

Alternative scenarios & positions

High-Risk Projects

In high-risk projects, confidentiality obligations may need to be more stringent, with additional security measures for data protection.

Cross-Border Transactions

For cross-border transactions, ensure that confidentiality and reporting clauses comply with international data protection laws.

Public Company Involvement

When a public company is involved, reporting requirements may need to align with public disclosure obligations.
