Written by leading US financial lawyers Anthony C. Gooch of Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton and Linda B. Klein of Dewey Ballantine LLP, this fully revised, updated and expanded book is the fourth edition of the best-selling guide to derivatives documentation.
Volume 1 explores the main legal issues so you can check whether agreements are enforceable and whether they present problems under U.S. commodities and securities laws. Descriptions of specific classes of products are accompanied by sample confirmations, to help you protect your and your clients’ interests. The volume includes documentation for swaps; caps and floors; collars and corridors; swaptions; FRAs; currency products (swaps, forwards and options); commodity-linked derivatives; credit, debt and equity derivatives (including credit default swaps and equity index swaps); and weather derivatives.
Volume 2 includes a clause by clause examination of ISDA-based Master Agreements. You will understand the features of the agreements and how they relate to each other, and be able to amend and enhance them to best achieve your client’s objectives. Also included is detailed analysis of ISDA’s credit support annexes and 2001 Margin Provisions, as well as extensive material on cross-product risk management. Decades of documentation experience and insight distilled into two volumes. This is an essential documentation tool for anyone working in or around the derivatives markets.
“One cannot negotiate an ISDA Master Agreement and do justice to its complexity and intricacy without consulting “Documentation for Derivatives” regardless of one’s level of expertise in the area.” - Professor Christian A. Johnson, Loyola University of Chicago School of Law (of the 3rd Edition)
