Continuity in relation to derivative contracts

This section has no associated Explanatory Notes

24(1)This paragraph applies if, in consequence of a transfer to which this Part of this Schedule applies, the transferee replaces a person as a party to a derivative contract.

(2)Schedule 26 to the Finance Act 2002 (c. 23) is to have effect in relation to the time when the transfer takes effect and any later time as if—

(a)the transferee had been a party to the derivative contract at the time when the transferor became a party to it and at all times since that time; and

(b)the derivative contract to which the transferee is a party after the time when the transfer takes effect is the same derivative contract as that to which, by virtue of paragraph (a), it is treated as having been a party before that time.

(3)Expressions used in this paragraph and in Schedule 26 to the Finance Act 2002 have the same meanings in this paragraph as in that Schedule.
