How Does the ISDA Framework Address the Issue of Multiple Jurisdictions?

The ISDA Master Agreement addresses multiple jurisdictions by allowing the parties to select a specific governing law (e.g. English or New York law) in the Schedule.

This choice governs the interpretation and enforceability of the contract. It also includes representations from each party regarding the enforceability of the netting provisions in their respective jurisdictions.
