Abstract

The previous chapter introduced the life cycle of OTC cleared contracts, which are created as a result of new regulations and whose life cycles resemble listed contracts. This chapter introduces the life cycle of OTC bilateral (or simply bilateral) contracts, which are the oldest of derivatives contracts. Bilateral markets have improved market practices and operational procedures to reduce the risk from derivatives and promote safer markets.
