The relief is time-limited and expires on the earlier of such time as SGX-DC is able to comply with the applicable swap data reporting requirements of Commission Regulations 45.3 and 45.4; or 30 April 2015.
The relief is also conditioned upon SGX-DC reporting “backloaded” data for swaps cleared during the pendency of the period of relief to a registered swap data repository by no later than 30 May 2015.
