The process of the CCIL subsuming all counterparty credit risk between the buyer and seller is known as?

  • A.Arbitration
  • B.Polarisation
  • C.Seniorage
  • D.Novation

Answer: D

CCIL plays the role of a central counterparty whereby, the contract between buyer and seller gets replaced by two new contracts – between CCIL and each of the two parties. This process is known as ‘Novation’. Through novation, the counterparty credit risk between the buyer and seller is eliminated with CCIL subsuming all counterparty and credit risks.
