The request for information and comment seeks input from market participants and interested members of the public on all aspects of the swap clearing requirement that may be affected by the transition from IBORs to alternative reference rates. It also includes enumerated requests for data and other information related to IBOR and alternative reference rate swaps, and enumerated requests for comment related to the CFTC’s current swap clearing requirement, alternative reference rate swaps, new swap product documentation, and swap clearing requirement specifications. The CFTC will use the information and comments received to inform modifications to the CFTC’s swap clearing requirement to address ongoing benchmark transition efforts. Comments may be submitted electronically through the [CFTC Comments Portal](https://comments.cftc.gov/PublicComments/ReleasesWithComments.aspx). All comments received will be posted on the [CFTC’s website](https://www.cftc.gov/).
