BIS: Despite ongoing progress, some central counterparties still lag on risk management and recovery planning


Default: Change to:


Overall, while the CPMI and IOSCO report found that participating CCPs have made progress in implementing arrangements consistent with the PFMI, some CCPs are still failing to implement a number of measures in the areas of risk management and recovery planning.


The Committee on Payments and Market Infrastructures (CPMI) and the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) continue to closely monitor the implementation of the Principles for financial market infrastructures (PFMI). The PFMI are international standards for payment, clearing and settlement systems, and trade repositories. They are designed to ensure that the infrastructure supporting global financial markets is robust and well placed to withstand financial shocks.

This report reviews the progress made by central counterparties (CCPs) in addressing the most serious issues of concern that were identified in an initial Level 3 report published in 2016. Overall, while the report found that participating CCPs have made progress in implementing arrangements consistent with the PFMI, some CCPs are still failing to implement a number of measures in the areas of risk management and recovery planning. The failure of these CCPs to implement practices constitutes, in certain instances, serious issues of concern and warrants immediate attention.
