# §709.12. Treatment of swap agreements in liquidation or conservatorship.


The Board has determined that a swap agreement, as defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act at [12 U.S.C. 1821(e)(8)(D)(vi)](/usc/12/1821.md?p=e-8-D-vi), is a qualified financial contract for purposes of the special treatment for qualified financial contracts provided in [12 U.S.C. 1787(c)](/usc/12/1787.md?p=c). Any master agreement for any swap agreement, together with all supplements to such master agreement, will be treated as one swap agreement.
