Single-sided Derivatives Reporting Data Integrity Paper
Summary
ISDA published a paper arguing that single-sided derivatives reporting does not compromise supervisory data quality. The paper addresses regulator concerns about moving from dual-sided reporting and highlights cost reduction and administrative burden benefits aligned with the EU's simplification agenda. The paper also notes enhanced consistency with global reporting regimes.
What changed
ISDA published a paper on April 2 addressing single-sided derivatives reporting and its impact on data integrity. The paper responds to regulator concerns that moving from dual-sided reporting (where both counterparties report) to single-sided reporting (where only one party reports) would adversely affect data quality received by supervisors. ISDA argues that true single-sided reporting would preserve data quality while reducing costs and administrative workload, aligning with the EU's burden reduction agenda and improving consistency with global reporting regimes.
For financial institutions subject to EMIR and MiFIR reporting obligations, this paper signals continued industry advocacy for reporting simplification. Firms should monitor regulatory developments as the European Commission considers reporting reforms. Institutions may want to evaluate potential operational cost savings from simplified reporting while ensuring their systems can maintain data quality standards expected by supervisors.
What to do next
- Monitor for regulatory developments on derivatives reporting requirements
- Review internal reporting processes for potential single-sided reporting transition

The paper addresses concerns among regulators that moving from dual-sided reporting would adversely affect the quality of data they receive and points out that true single-sided reporting would reduce reporting costs and administrative workload in alignment with the EU’s simplification and burden reduction agenda and would enhance consistency with other global reporting regimes.
