Description

The IECA launched its Master Netting Agreement Working Group to develop a straightforward master netting agreement that is easy to negotiate, flexible enough to cover a variety of physically and financially-settled transactions, and effective under both English and New York law. This effort arose as a reaction to the relative complexity of existing master netting agreement forms, and in some regions, the lack of a commonly used form. Come join our Working Group members for the roll-out of the IECA Master Netting Agreement (MNA) as they examine various sections of the MNA and discuss issues and concepts that commonly arise in master netting agreement negotiations.
