{{fullanat|csa|1(b)|2016}}

In the year of our Lord 2016, it is gratifying to see that the good people of {{tag|ISDA}} and their friends, relations, cherubim and seraphin, gog and magog etc., are all still as fearful of the language they learned at their mothers' knees as ever. “[[If any]]” makes four appearances in an eight line clause which doesn’t say much in the first place.

This seems to be contemplating those who wished to “grandfather” {{isdaprov|Transaction}}s which were already on foot at the time the [[regulatory margin]] obligation came into force, but which therefore preceded it and were out of scope for it. Cue a monstrously painful ''dual''-CSA regime where new transactions were margined under a new, [[regulatory margin]]-compliant {{2016csa}}, and old ones were allowed to roll off on the clapped out (but somehow better'', right?) {{1995csa}}.
