ISDA Wins Digital Solution of the Year Award

ISDA has won Digital Solution of the Year at the GlobalCapital Global Derivatives Awards 2026 for the ISDA Digital Regulatory Reporting (DRR) initiative and the ISDA Notices Hub.

The award recognizes ISDA's continued work to develop mutualized digital solutions that reduce cost, risk and operational complexity for derivatives market participants. Over the past 12 months, the ISDA DRR has extended its coverage to new regulatory reporting regimes and is incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) to improve efficiency and transparency, while the ISDA Notices Hub has grown the number of adherents and expanded its legal opinion coverage across a wide range of jurisdictions.

"We're delighted both solutions have been recognized as GlobalCapital's Digital Solution of the Year. They are prime examples of ISDA's mutualized approach to solving common industry problems - bringing greater efficiency, consistency and resilience to derivatives markets by developing solutions once, centrally, rather than firm by firm," said Scott O'Malia, ISDA's Chief Executive.

ISDA DRR: The ISDA DRR uses the Common Domain Model to convert an industry-agreed interpretation of derivatives reporting rules into machine-executable code, helping firms cut costs, improve data quality and adapt quickly as rules change. Over the past year, the ISDA DRR has been extended to support reporting rule updates that came into effect in Hong Kong and the US under the US Securities and Exchange Commission. In March 2026, ISDA selected Gentek AI to build a new AI-driven traceability tool that allows users to look back at the history of ISDA DRR decision-making to provide an audit trail of when and why decisions were made. In addition, ISDA is developing an AI-driven translator agent to support the conversion of new or amended reporting rules into DRR code and the comparison of reporting rules across regimes.

ISDA Notices Hub: The ISDA Notices Hub, which launched in July 2025 and is hosted on S&P Global Market Intelligence's Counterparty Manager, is a secure online platform for the near-instantaneous delivery and receipt of termination notices and waivers under the ISDA Master Agreement and resolves industry issues arising from outdated address details for physical delivery. More than 190 buy- and sell-side entities from North America, Europe and Asia Pacific have now adhered to the ISDA 2025 Notices Hub Protocol, which provides the legal basis for use of the platform, including 70% of global dealers, as well as asset managers, insurance and pension companies, supranationals and central bank entities. ISDA has also published legal opinions covering use of the ISDA Notices Hub across 38 jurisdictions, providing certainty that delivery via the ISDA Notices Hub is legally enforceable.
