ESMA and JFSA conclude an MoC regarding CCPs

24 February 2015

The MoC applies to CCPs that are established in Japan, are licensed or approved by the JFSA, and have applied for recognition under EMIR.

The MoC is effective as of 18 February 2015. This MoC is established under the European Markets Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR). EMIR provides for cooperation arrangements to be established between ESMA and non-EU authorities whose legal and supervisory framework for CCPs have been deemed equivalent to EMIR by the European Commission. ESMA is working closely with other third-country authorities on similar cooperation arrangements.
