ISDA launches consultation on CDS auction lock-up agreements

The International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) has published a consultation paper proposing new solutions for handling lock-up agreements in Credit Default Swap (CDS) auctions. The proposal seeks to establish a uniform treatment of Locked Up Debt within CDS settlement processes—addressing issues related to market squeezes and auction timing. It responds to concerns about the disproportionate impact of Lock-Up Agreements on CDS settlements during restructuring and bankruptcy scenarios. Market participants are invited to submit feedback on the proposed solution by 8 August 2025 to Fred Quenzer, Senior Counsel, America, at fquenzer@isda.org.

ISSB consults on amendments to SASB Standards and IFRS S2 guidance

The International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) has published two exposure drafts proposing amendments to the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Standards and consequential amendments to the industry-based guidance on implementing International Financial Reporting Standard 2 (IFRS S2). The proposals include: (1) a comprehensive review of nine priority industries (all eight industries within the extractives and minerals processing sector and the processed foods industry); (2) metric alignments across 41 additional industries covering topics such as water management and workforce health and safety; and (3) updates to the IFRS 2 industry-based guidance to maintain alignment with climate-related content in the SASB standards. Final amendments are expected in 2026, subject to stakeholder feedback. Before the end of 2025, the ISSB will also publish exposure drafts for proposed enhancements to three further SASB Standards: electric utilities and power generators, and two standards in the food and beverage sector. It will consider an additional group of industries for prioritisation for future enhancements later in 2025.
