Officials Rule No Payout on Greek Swaps
The International Swaps and Derivatives Association said on Thursday that based on current evidence the Greek bailout would not prompt payments on the credit-default swaps linked to the country’s bonds.
But the organization warned that the situation in Greece was “still evolving” and such payouts might be necessary in the future “as further facts come to light.”
In the midst of the Greek drama, credit-default swaps, financial instruments intended to protect against losses on debt, have once again raised worries.
During the financial crisis of 2008, derivatives contributed to the mess. Banks feared that their trading partners might not make good on their obligations, a situation that panicked the markets and nearly brought the financial systems to its knees.
As part of Greece’s restructuring, bondholders will be required to take a 70 percent loss on their holdings. When first announced, the deal was proposed as a voluntary exchange, which would not have activated the credit-default swaps.
But in recent weeks, Greece has prepared to require all private bondholders to accept the losses through legal means. This would make the exchange involuntary and almost certainly set off the swaps.

One party raised a specific issue, related to the European Central Bank. While private bondholders will take a loss on
their holdings, the E.C.B. was able to avoid those losses by striking a separate deal with Greece. The party wondered
if that qualified as “subordination” and would prompt swap payments.
Another party took a broader approach, asking if any part of the proposed Greek debt exchange and the resulting
losses would activate the swaps.
But so far I.S.D.A. has not been swayed. On Thursday, the organization said a committee had “unanimously determined”
in both cases that a credit event did not occur.
The 15-member I.S.D.A. committee behind the decision includes 10 banks that deal in derivatives and 5 asset management
firms. For a decision to pass, it has to have the backing of at least 12 members. The I.S.D.A. says this prevents a
situation where the banks alone can sway a vote. In the most recent Greek votes, all 15 members voted against
activating the swaps.
One question the process faces is whether committee members will vote according to their economic interest. Many of
the banks on the committee have recently reported substantial exposure to swaps on Greek government bonds. For
instance, Barclays, which voted against swaps activation on Thursday, had sold default protection on $5.92 billion of
swaps on Greek debt, and bought $5.81 billion of protection, as of Sept. 30 last year, according to the European
Banking Authority.
Despite the unanimous vote, the organization did not shut the door entirely on the possibility of a payout. Market
participants, the group said, can still submit questions on the deal. And given that Greece could use legal means to
require all private bondholders to accept losses, the action could still set off the swaps.

Even so, the ruling and the prospect that Greece could default without activating the swaps could reignite the
debate about the usefulness of the financial instruments. If borrowers can structure defaults to circumvent swaps
payouts, investors may see the swaps as unreliable.
