Notice
Summary
The Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) is updating its rules to stop accepting two types of rarely used collateral and to better protect itself from risky situations where things could go wrong at the same time. This change affects the financial firms that use OCC to clear their options trades and helps keep the system safer without changing costs right now. The new rules were proposed in February 2026 and are open for public comments before they take effect.
