Waters Wavelength Podcast Episode 87: Disaster Recovery & Initial Margin Rules
James talks about his trip to Chicago and some of the interesting topics that came up (including a look at disaster recovery demands). Then Anthony and James touch on ISDA's initial margin rules, with Phase 3 going live next year.
On the podcast, Anthony and James first preview Waters’ first-ever fintech event, before discussing James’ trip to Chicago. Then they look at how phase-three firms are preparing to comply with Standard Initial Margin Model (SIMM) guidelines for the mandatory exchange of initial margin on non-cleared derivatives trades. Finally, they wrap things up by discussing all things European soccer.

17:30 A Brit talks about the English Premier League and Champions League, with a focus on Chelsea—yet another reason to dislike James.
