MAS Reporting

The Monetary Authority Singapore (MAS) implemented the ‘Securities And Futures (Reporting of Derivatives Contracts) Regulations 2013’, as part of Singapore’s response to the G20 agreement to mandate reporting of all OTC derivatives. A rewrite of the rules is due to go live on 21 October 2024.

What is MAS Reporting?

MAS rolled out the Singapore reporting in stages based on the asset class involved, whether the contract was booked in, or traded in Singapore, and the size/type of firm involved.

  • April 2014 – Reporting began for credit and interest rate OTC derivative contracts with banks and merchant banks licensed in Singapore being the first firm types obligated to report
  • July 2014 – Credit and interest rate reporting was quickly extended to other firms including bank subsidiaries, insurers, finance companies
  • May 2015 – Reporting of FX derivatives commenced for banks and merchant banks
  • October 2018 – The obligation to report equity and commodity derivatives began
  • October 2021 – Reporting of FX, equity and commodities went live for other firm types (bank subsidiaries, insurers, finance companies etc) following a year’s delay due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

All reporting is via DTCC’s Singapore GTR.

MAS is implementing its own rewrite of the reporting rules due to commence in October 2024, aligning with the commencement date of the ASIC Rewrite.
