EU Amends Implementing Standards for Diversified Stock Indices Under Capital Requirements Legislation

A Commission Implementing Regulation amending existing Implementing Technical Standards under the Capital Requirements Regulation has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union. The ITS specify the stock indices that are sufficiently diversified to be counted as individual equities, without requiring market participants to take account of their specific risk under CRR for any stock index future placed on them. The amendments to the ITS update the stock indices listed in light of the latest available data. The ITS will apply directly across Member States from February 19, 2020.
