  • European Securities and Markets Authority signs Memoranda of Understanding with South African and Mexican CCP Regulators
    01/26/2016

    The European Securities and Markets Authority published the Memoranda of Understanding it entered into with the Financial Services Board of South Africa and the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores of Mexico. The MoUs are established further to the European Markets Infrastructure Regulation, under which ESMA is required to set out cooperation arrangements with non-EU authorities whose legal and supervisory framework for non-EU CCPs are deemed to be equivalent to European requirements. The MoUs provide ESMA with the tools to monitor the ongoing compliance of non-EU CCPs with the recognition conditions under EMIR. The MoUs are effective from November 30, 2015 and January 25, 2016 respectively.
