Further EU Equivalence Decisions on Regulatory Regimes for CCPs
11/14/2015
Five equivalence decisions on the regulatory regimes for CCPs under the European Market Infrastructure Regulation were published in the Official Journal of the European Union. These relate to Canada, Mexico, the Republic of Korea, South Africa and Switzerland. The legal and supervisory arrangements of these jurisdictions are considered to be equivalent to the requirements set out in EMIR. Equivalence decisions for CCP regimes have previously been given only for Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan. A decision for the US is still outstanding due to the differing margin requirements for exchange-traded derivatives.
