On October 17, OCC provided comments to the Financial Stability Board (FSB) on the issue of essential aspects of CCP resolution planning. OCC supports the work being done regarding CCP resiliency and recovery, but reiterated its concern that in providing guidance regarding resolution, the FSB and other policymakers should not prevent a CCP like OCC from fully implementing its recovery plan and should avoid suggesting steps or processes that undermine the CCP recovery process. OCC said that it is very important in planning for CCP resolution that policymakers focus on resolution planning that promotes market certainty while giving resolution authorities and CCPs the flexibility to deal with actual events as they occur.
