The {{1992isda}} does not have a specific set off provision, although it manages to define {{isdaprov|Set-off}}, however:

ISDA published a provision in the [[Users Guide]] but several bespoke versions of a set-off provision developed and were used in the market. These often provided for the inclusion of '''{{isdaprov|Affiliate}}s''' in relation to the {{isdaprov|Non-defaulting Party}} or {{isdaprov|Non-affected Party}}.

This set-off provision imagines a world where an {{isdaprov|Early Termination Amount}} is payable in one direction, while all "{{isdaprov|Other Amounts}}” are payable in the other. For example:
This provision imagines a world where an {{isdaprov|Early Termination Amount}} is payable one way, and the "{{isdaprov|Other Amounts}}” are all payable in the other way.
