Shadow reports (1)
REPORT on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down common rules on securitisation and creating a European framework for simple, transparent and standardised securitisation and amending Directives 2009/65/EC, 2009/138/EC, 2011/61/EU and Regulations (EC) No 1060/2009 and (EU) No 648/2012 PDF (966 KB) DOC (156 KB)

(10) It is essential that competent authorities work closely together to ensure a common and consistent understanding of the STS requirements throughout the Union and to address potential interpretation issues. In the light of this objective, the three ESAs should, in the framework of the Joint Committee of the European Supervisory Authorities within which a new securitisation committee shall be set up, coordinate their work and that of the competent authorities to ensure cross- sectoral consistency and assess practical issues which may arise with regards to STS securitisations. In doing so, the views of market participants should also be requested and taken into account to the extent possible. The outcome of these discussions should be made public on the websites of the ESAs so as to help originators, sponsors, SSPEs and investors assess STS securitisations before issuing or investing in such positions. Such a coordination mechanism would be particularly important in the period leading to the implementation of this Regulation.

(13) The ability of investors to exercise due diligence and thus make an informed assessment of the creditworthiness of a given securitisation instrument depends on their access to information on those instruments.. Based on the existing acquis, it is important to create a comprehensive system under which investors will have access to all the relevant information over the entire life of the transactions and to reduce originators,’ and sponsors and SSPEs' reporting tasks and to facilitate investors' continuous; easy and free access to reliable information on securitisations.

(14) Originators, and sponsors and SSPE's should make all materially relevant data on the credit quality and performance of underlying exposures available in the investor report, including data allowing investors to clearly identify delinquency and default of underlying debtors, debt restructuring, debt forgiveness, forbearance, repurchases, payment holidays, losses, charge offs, recoveries and other asset performance remedies in the pool of underlying exposures. Data on the cash flows generated by underlying exposures and by the liabilities of the securitisation issuance, including separate disclosure of the securitisation position’s income and disbursements, that is scheduled principal, scheduled interest, prepaid principal, past due interest and fees and charges and any data relating to the breach of any triggers implying changes in the priority of payments or replacement of any counterparties as well as data on the amount and form of credit enhancement available to each tranche should also be made available in the investor report. Although securitisations that are simple, transparent and standardised have in the past performed well, the satisfaction of any STS requirements does not mean that the securitisation position is free of risks, nor does it indicate anything about the credit quality underlying the securitisation. Instead, it should be understood to indicate that a prudent and diligent investor will be able to analyse the risks involved in the securitisation. There should be two types of STS requirements: one for long-term securitisations and one for short-term securitisations (ABCP), which should be subject to a large extent to similar requirements with specific adjustments to reflect the structural features of these two market segments. The functioning of these markets are different with ABCP programmes relying on a number of ABCP transactions consisting of short term exposures which need to be replaced once matured. In addition, STS criteria need also to reflect the specific role of the sponsor providing liquidity support to the ABCP conduits.

(18) To ensure that investors perform robust due diligence and to facilitate the assessment of underlying risks, it is important that securitisation transactions are backed by pools of exposures that are homogenous in asset type, such as pools of residential loans, pools of commercial loans, leases and credit facilities to undertakings of the same category to finance capital expenditureproperty loans to individuals, property loans secured on commercial property, consumer loans made to individuals for personal, family or household consumption purposes, financial contracts for business operations, pools of auto loans and leases to borrowers or lessees or loans and pools of credit facilities to individuals for personal, family or household consumption purposthe purpose of financing the purchase of a motor vehicle (including loans, leases and hire purchase contracts), loans entered into with motor dealers to fund the purchase or retention of stock, loans to SMEs, loans to corporate entities (excluding SMEs), trade receivables and equipment leases (excluding leases of cars, vans, trucks and motorbikes).

(21) Where a securitisation no longer meets the STS requirements, the originator, and sponsor and SSPE should immediately notify ESMA. Moreover, where a competent authority has imposed administrative sanctions or remedial measures with regard to a securitisation notified as being STS, that competent authority should immediately notify ESMA for its indication on the STS notifications list allowing investors to be informed about such sanctions and about the reliability of STS notifications. It is therefore in the interest of originators, and sponsors and SSPE's to make well-considered notifications due to reputational consequences.
Amendment 163 #

Recital 22
Recital 22
(22) Investors should perform their own due diligence on investments commensurate with the risks involved but they should be able to rely on the STS notifications and on the information provided by the originator, and sponsor and SSPE on STS compliance. They should not, however, solely and mechanistically rely on such a notification, nor on the information provided by the originator and sponsor.

(23) The involvement of third parties in helping to check compliance of a securitisation with the STS requirements may be useful for investors, originators, sponsors and SSPE's and could contribute to increase confidence in the market for STS securitisations. Originators and sponsors should also use the services of a third party authorised in accordance with this Regulation to assess whether their securitisation complies with the STS criteria. Such bodies must be subject to regulatory oversight. The notification to ESMA and the subsequent publication on ESMA's website should mention that STS compliance was confirmed by an authorised third-party. However, it is essential that investors make their own assessment, take responsibility for their investment decisions and do not mechanistically rely on such third parties.

(37) For securitisation positions outstanding as of the date of entry into force of this Regulation, originators, sponsors and SSPEs may use the designation 'STS' provided that the securitisation complies with the STS requirements. Therefore, originators, sponsors and SSPEs should be able to submit an STS notification pursuant to Article 14 (1) of this Regulation to ESMA. Any subsequent modifications to the securitisation should be accepted provided that it meets all of the applicable STS requirements.
