The Long Tail of LIBOR Remediation
The contracts that survived the LIBOR cessation date without remediation are, by definition, the hard ones — the counterparties who didn't respond to outreach, the instruments with ambiguous fallback language, the ones that required legal analysis before amendment could proceed. Now some of those contracts are generating rates under contractual fallbacks that weren't designed for a post-LIBOR world. Tracking the remediation status of 800 contracts across Icertis, iManage, and counterparty outreach logs — while also generating ARRC-compliant amendment language for each — is a volume problem that manual legal operations can't absorb quickly enough.
How an AI Agent Manages the Remediation Workflow
An AI Labor Company agent classifies the full portfolio of remaining LIBOR-referencing contracts in Icertis by fallback type — hardwired, contractual, or silent — and assigns remediation priority based on the economic impact of incorrect rate calculation. For each contract requiring amendment, the agent generates ARRC-compliant fallback language tailored to the instrument type and counterparty structure, ready for legal review before outreach. Counterparty outreach status, amendment execution progress, and remaining exposure are tracked in a live remediation dashboard in Workiva, giving your in-house legal team and regulators a clear view of progress. The agent is typically operational and producing classifications within five weeks.
Quantifying What Incorrect Rates Are Costing
This is a financial exposure problem with a regulatory dimension. Contracts defaulting to contractual fallbacks that produce economically incorrect rates are generating real P&L impact — the magnitude depends on the notional amounts and the spread between the contractual fallback rate and the economically intended SOFR-based rate. Beyond the direct financial impact, regulatory citations for inadequate LIBOR remediation carry reputational and examination risk at a $100B+ institution. An agent that accelerates classification, amendment drafting, and outreach tracking — with 65–85% reduction in manual remediation work — compresses the exposure window and produces the documentation trail regulators expect to see.
Can the agent work with contracts spread across both Icertis and iManage?
Yes — the agent ingests contract data from both repositories, normalizes the fallback language analysis across sources, and maintains a unified classification and status view regardless of where individual contracts are stored.
How does the agent generate ARRC-compliant amendment language — does it require legal review?
The agent generates draft amendment language using ARRC hardwired fallback templates, adapted to the specific instrument type and counterparty terms. Every amendment goes through legal review before counterparty outreach — the agent handles drafting and routing, not final approval.
What does the Workiva dashboard show regulators if they ask for a remediation status update?
The dashboard shows total portfolio classification by fallback type, amendment execution status, counterparty outreach history, and remaining exposure — updated in real time as the agent processes new contract classifications and tracks outreach responses.
