Reporting Requirements

There have been some very important changes governing the regulation of over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives in Canada. These changes may require you to take action prior to commencing your trading relationship with MCAP FX.

Commencing from October 31, 2014, OTC derivative trades (e.g. forward contracts, options, swaps or other similar types of contract with its value derived from an underlying security or rates, hence the name Derivatives) involving a “local counterparty” in most Canadian provinces including Alberta, Ontario, Manitoba or Quebec must be reported to an approved trade repository such as the DTCC or CME CTR. Such trade repositories maintain all such information and will make it available to the securities regulatory authorities in Canada upon request.

Any “local counterparty” in any Canadian province will be affected, as well as any entity trading with these local counterparties. A “local counterparty” with respect to a province is any:

  • Person or company, other than an individual, organized under the laws of that province or that has its head office or principal place of business in that province
  • affiliate of a person or company described in the point above, where such person or company is responsible for the liabilities of that affiliated party or
  • entity registered in that province as a derivatives dealer or in an alternative category as a consequence of trading in derivatives

Note that an entity can be a local counterparty in more than one jurisdiction. For example, if a corporation is incorporated in Alberta but has its head office in Quebec it will be a local counterparty in both Alberta and Quebec.

For trades between an end user and a derivatives dealer, the derivatives dealer has the obligation to report the trade. As MCAP FX expects to be considered a derivatives dealer, certain information is required from its clients to facilitate trade reporting which includes your jurisdiction of operations, incorporation and where you head office is located. In addition, you are required to provide your Legal Entity Identifier or LEI each time a trade is transacted. An LEI is a 20 digit code used to identify the parties to a trade that must be included on trade reports required to be reported by MCAP FX. It is your responsibility to obtain an LEI. To obtain an LEI, go to any approved LEI provider, such as the Global Markets Entity Identifier (“GMEI”) (https://www.gmeiutility.org). It may take several days to obtain an LEI, and it costs $200 (USD) for issuance and $100 (USD) annually for maintenance (fees subject to change). For further information on this process please visit the FAQ section of the GMEI website.

Please take the above steps as soon as possible, as an LEI will be required prior to commencing any trading activity with MCAP FX.

Note that this document is provided for general information and not as legal advice. If you have questions, please contact your MCAP FX representative.
