Singapore: Do both parties to a derivatives contract need to report?
As reporting obligations are imposed on the reporting entities, if a derivatives contract is entered into between two reporting entities, both parties need to report.
If a derivatives contract is entered into between a reporting entity and a party who is not a reporting entity, only the reporting entity needs to report.
A reporting entity may give consent to the counterparty of a derivatives contract, or any other third party, to report on its behalf.
