Banks may net only those contracts subject to novation.

Les banques ne peuvent compenser que les contrats sur la base de la novation. La novation désigne un contrat écrit bilatéral entre deux contreparties, en vertu duquel toute obligation d'une partie envers l'autre de livrer une monnaie précisée à une date déterminée est automatiquement intégrée à l'ensemble des autres obligations pour la même monnaie et la même date de valeur; un montant net unique remplace de plein droit les obligations brutes antérieures.
