AMF completes incorporation of ESMA guidelines on risk measurement and calculation of global exposure for certain types of structured UCITS


These guidelines – which continue on from work published by the CESR in July 2010 and ESMA's final report - supplement the requirements on the calculation of global risk associated with derivatives.

The AMF is compliant with the guidelines on risk measurement and the calculation of global exposure for certain types of structured UCITS. The AMF had already incorporated virtually all of these guidelines into its monitoring practices in Articles 411-80 and 411-81 of its General Regulation and Article 11 of AMF Instruction 2011-15.

Provisions on information to be included in prospectuses have been added to the latter Article. This addition completes the incorporation of the ESMA guidelines.

It should be noted that, for structured UCITS, the KIID must include certain information specified in the Guide to UCITS and Real estate collective investment schemes regulatory documents.
