Dodd-Frank, Swaps Clearing and Compliance for Pension Plan Asset Managers
Pension Risk Matters 
[Guidance Overview] Jan. 21, 2014
"A pension plan, whether a corporate ERISA plan or government employee benefits plan, must have an account with a Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) in order to enter into swaps trades that are subject to clearing. This requires diligence and negotiation of important documentation about the clearing relationship. Pension plans should also consider the trade-offs between using swaps and nearly equivalent futures contracts."
