“The final SEC ruling on mandatory clearing will cause a shake-up in the repo market
The market has been slow to automate, but is now moving to adapt
The Common Domain Model (CDM) holds promise for standardisation”
The Common Domain Model (CDM) is a standardized, machine-readable and machine-executable mechanism.
This mechanism is what will move the financial products through electronic trades designed to complete transactions on both sides of a trade.
The CDM is being implemented early 2024 to automate trades and clearing them through electronic measures designed to move transactions inside new Quantum Technologies.
It is move from paper and pen to automatic computations run on the QFS.
The Repo Market is a repurchase agreement that fills 1 to 2 trillion dollars worth of trades each and every day. These are short-term executions of trade often done for government securities, but many banks can often use it in making investment conversions from a centralized location or electronic mechanism that is capable of handling trades between institutions.
The Repo Market has been slow to comply to the standardization process of the QFS. Now, they have been given the green light to move forward with these new changes.

The IMF just recently ended their latest consultation with Iraq. They have been given a year-long assessment of their findings and follow-up procedures regarding their new economic reforms enacted earlier this year of 2023.
At this time, they have been given the green light to do the following:
“passthrough from the exchange rate revaluation”
Let’s take a closer view as to what this means. “Exchange-rate pass-through (ERPT) is a measure of how responsive international prices are to changes in exchange rates. Formally, exchange-rate pass-through is the elasticity of local-currency import prices with respect to the local-currency price of foreign currency.”
Let’s put this in more simple terms. Iraq is about to allow the markets to determine their new exchange rates. And, they are about to execute this new declaration beginning the first of January in 2024 in the use of Dinar currency only in International trade.
Watch the water.
