ESMA(欧州証券市場機構)、小規模金融カウンターパーティー(カテゴリー3)に係るOTC(店頭)デリバティブの中央清算義務の適用延期を求める報告書を公表


Default: Change to:


ESMA published its final report regarding the amended application of the clearing obligation that financial counterparties with a limited volume of activity in OTC derivatives need to comply with under EMIR.


Due to a range of reasons covered in the report, in particular relevant EU legislations being under review or finalisation, ESMA proposes to postpone the phase-in period for central clearing of OTC derivatives applicable to financial counterparties with a limited volume of derivatives activity.

ESMA’s report proposes to amend EMIR’s Delegated Regulations on the clearing obligation in order to prolong, by two years, the phase-in for financial counterparties with a limited volume of derivatives activity - those ones classified in Category 3 under EMIR Delegated Regulations. ESMA is also proposing to align the three compliance dates for Category 3 firms in the Delegated Regulations regarding Interest Rate Swaps and Credit Default Swaps. The newly proposed compliance date would be 21 June 2019.

ESMA’s final report was submitted to the European Commission for endorsement of the draft RTS presented in the Annex. From the date of submission, the European Commission should decide within three months whether or not to endorse the RTS.
