Panel participants believe that the election/shift in regulatory outlook might lead to
a slowdown of products being added to the clearing mandate, with FX being the
biggest unknown.

Going forward, firms are tackling U.S. vs Europe collateral harmonization/transfer
(DTCC and Euroclear are working on a collateral transfer initiative that is expected
to launch in 1Q17), collateral management through firms including BNY Mellon, and
Cleared repo could also be on the horizon (CME has filed an application with the
SEC but no timeline given).

We asked investors what the biggest potential risks are in the clearing mandate and
CCPs, and 33% of voting investors thought collateral concentration issues with
cybersecurity (27%) coming in 2nd.
