Risk margin cap: combined VaR, extreme loss and mark-to-market on purchases limited to purchase value; exchanges must comply. Buy-side cash-market transactions must ensure that VaR margins, Extreme Loss margins and mark-to-market losses together do not exceed the purchase value. Sell-side transactions remain subject to the existing practice where VaR and Extreme Loss margins together do not exceed the sale value while mark-to-market losses are levied separately. Exchanges must modify bye-laws, notify members, implement and test software changes, and report implementation status.
