ESMA(欧州証券市場機構)、合意なき離脱時の英国のCCP(中央清算機関)・CSD(証券集中保管機関)の承認に向けた覚書をイングランド銀行と締結


Default: Change to:


ESMA agreed MoUs with the Bank of England for the recognition of CCPs and of CSDs established in the UK, that would take effect should the UK leave the EU without a withdrawal agreement, the no-deal Brexit scenario.


ESMA aims to recognise UK CCPs and the UK CSD in a timely manner, where the four recognition conditions under Article 25 of EMIR, and the four recognition conditions under Article 25 of CSDR are met, respectively. The conclusion of MoUs between ESMA and the BOE satisfies the third recognition condition - establishment of cooperation arrangements - under both regulations.

The MoUs are a statement of intent to consult, cooperate and exchange information in connection with ESMA’s immediate access, on an on-going basis, to all information it requests regarding the CCPs and CSD. They are based on the standard template for the recognition of third country CCPs and amended to reflect the relevant conditions in the two equivalence decisions of the European Commission. The MOUs set out in detail the scope of cooperation and information-sharing arrangements between ESMA and the BOE.

The MoUs ensure that cooperation arrangements have been established regarding the CCPs and CSD and provide ESMA with adequate tools to monitor their ongoing compliance with the recognition conditions and to assess any material risk they pose, directly or indirectly, to the EU or any of its Member States, including to their financial stability.

Next steps

ESMA aims to complete the next steps for the recognition of the UK CCPs and the UK CSD and to adopt the recognition decisions well ahead of Brexit date. The recognition decisions would take effect on the date following Brexit date, under a no-deal Brexit scenario.
