The Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement (MSFTA) is a master`s contract that allows the purchase and sale of forward documents and other late delivery documents. The first version of MSFTA was published in 1996 by the Securities Industry Financial Market Association („SIFMA“). In 2012, SIFMA, with the help of market participants, published a new version of MSFTA that replaced the 1996 agreement. The 2012 version contains reciprocal margin provisions in the text of the treaty. A use agreement where the parties can enter into transactions in which a party (a „seller“) agrees to transfer securities or other assets against the transfer of funds by the buyer to the other (a „buyer“), with the buyer`s agreement to transfer those securities to the seller on a date or on demand against the transfer of funds by the seller. A use agreement where the parties can make transactions in which one party (a „lender“) lends certain guarantees against a guarantee transfer to the other party (a „borrower“). Under an MSFTA, in the event of a contractual default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any TBA transaction with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by one of the parties under its master netting agreements, and sell or retain all guarantees held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master compensation agreements. An agreement to be used when the parties enter into transactions to purchase or sell mortgage-backed securities and other debt-backed securities and other securities that may be defined, including issuance, TBA, dollar rolls and other transactions that result in or may result in deferred issuance of securities.
