======{{2002ma}}======
====={{2002ma}}=====
The still, after all these years, state-of-the-art {{2002ma}}. This is the most popular version — it took industry participants an ''awfully'' long time to get comfortable with it, despite its innovations being largely sensible, but now most of the European and Asian markets trade on the {{2002ma}}, and we sense even the Americans are coming to reluctant terms with it.

Perhaps had the {{2002ma}} been ''more'' radical it might have stood a greater chance of adoption. On the other hand, the further the fruit falls from the tree, the greater chance of outright failure. Just ask “[[Flight 19]]”, the poor, doomed Linklaters team who drafted the [[2011 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions|2011 Equity Derivatives Definitions]].

The [[1987 ISDA Interest Rate and Currency Exchange Agreement]] — it wasn’t, by name, a comprehensive master agreement — is all but a dead letter now. But, we sense, not ''quite''.
