Welcome to Amwell Clear. As with everything worthwhile in life, it is a work in progress. You may only access if you are an authorised user.

Like The Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, this site has many omissions and contains much that is apocryphal, or at least wildly inaccurate. Enter at your peril. (Yes, that's a disclaimer — lest the sky should fall in on my head, or yours.)

The main feature of this site are the “anatomies”: section-by-section guides to trading agreements, rules, definition booklets and so forth. They are constantly developing. They may be out of date, incomplete, inappropriately flippant or missing altogether.

The main ones

ISDA Anatomy: the 1992 ISDA and the 2002 ISDA, compared and contrasted.
CSA Anatomy: the 1995 CSA.
Equity Derivatives Anatomy: the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions.
GMSLA Anatomy: the 2010 GMSLA.
GMRA Anatomy: the Global Master Repurchase Agreement.
CASS Anatomy: the FCA's Client Money and Client Asset rules.
COBS Anatomy: the FCA's Conduct of Business rules.
