PURPOSE: to strengthen the supervision of CCPs in the EU and third countries with a view to consolidating the financial stability of the European Union (EU).
LEGISLATIVE ACT: Regulation (EU) 2019/2099 of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 as regards the procedures and authorities involved for the authorisation of CCPs and requirements for the recognition of third-country CCPs.
CONTENT: the Regulation introduces specific amendments to Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 on European Market Infrastructures ("EMIR" Regulation) with a view to establishing a clear and consistent oversight arrangement for EU and third country CCPs. Central counterparty clearing houses (CCPs) are entities that help facilitate trading in various European derivatives and equities markets. Since the adoption of the EMIR Regulation, the scale and scope of CCP activity in the EU and globally has grown rapidly. As of August 2019 there were 16 CCPs established and authorised in the EU. In addition, 33 CCPs from third countries have been recognised under the EMIR Regulation under its equivalence provisions, enabling them to offer their services in the EU. The expansion of CCP activity is expected to continue in the coming years.
This Regulation aims to strengthen the supervision of CCPs in order to take account of the increasing size, complexity and cross-border dimension of clearing in Europe by introducing a single mechanism within the European Securities and Markets Authority.
The main elements of the proposal are as follows:
Creation of a CCP Supervisory Committee
The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) shall set up a permanent internal committee for CCPs, responsible for tasks relating to CCPs authorised in the EU and CCPs from third countries.
The Committee shall be composed of the Chair, two independent members and the competent authorities of the Member States with an authorised CCP. The central banks of the countries whose currency is used for a given transaction will be able to participate in the Committee on specific issues, but will not have voting rights.
The chairperson and independent members of the CCP Supervisory Committee shall act independently and objectively in the Union interest and shall be accountable to the European Parliament and the Council for any decisions taken on the basis of the EMIR Regulation.
Third country central counterparties
The Regulation aims to tighten the recognition and supervision of third country CCPs for those CCPs that are systemically important to the EU. To this end, it distinguishes between lower-risk CCPs (known as Tier 1 CCPs) and those that are systemically important for the EU or one or more of its Member States (Tier 2 CCPs).
The Regulation imposes stricter requirements on Tier 2 CCPs to be recognised and authorised to operate in the EU. In particular, it requires :
- that the prudential requirements for CCPs in the EU are met, taking into account the regulations of third countries;
- that the CCP agrees to provide all relevant information to ESMA and to accept on-site inspections, and that the necessary assurances are given that such arrangements are valid in the third country.
ESMA shall be in a position, given the scale of systemic importance of a CCP or some of its clearing services, to recommend to the Commission that a CCP should not be recognised. The Commission may ultimately decide that the CCP should be established in the EU. The third country CCP shall establish itself in the EU in order to be able to operate.
ESMA shall, inter alia, need to consider changes in the nature, size and complexity of the activities of the third country CCP. These reviews shall take place at least every five years.
ESMA may impose fines on both Tier 1 and Tier 2 CCPs if it finds that they have intentionally or negligently infringed the EMIR Regulation by providing it with false or misleading information.
ENTRY INTO FORCE: 1.1.2020.
The European Parliament adopted by 435 votes to 57, with 51 abstentions, a legislative resolution on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Securities and Markets Authority) and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 as regards the procedures and authorities involved for the authorisation of CCPs and requirements for the recognition of third-country CCPs.
As a reminder, the proposal aims to introduce specific amendments to the European Market Infrastructure Regulation ( EMIR ) and the ESMA Regulation with a view to establishing a clear and consistent supervisory framework for EU and third country CCPs.
The European Parliament’s position adopted at first reading under the ordinary legislative procedure amended the Commission proposal as follows:
Central Counterparty Supervisory Committee
The Committee shall comprise the chairperson, independent members and competent authorities of Member States with an authorised CCP:
- where it convenes in relation to authorised CCPs, central banks of issue of Union currencies of the financial instruments cleared by authorised CCPs might, on a voluntary basis, participate in the CCP Supervisory Committee in relation to the areas of Union-wide assessments of the resilience of CCPs to adverse market developments and relevant market developments, to facilitate access to information that could be relevant for carrying out their tasks;
- where it convenes in relation to third-country CCPs, central banks of issue of all Union currencies of the financial instruments cleared or to be cleared by the respective third country CCP might, on a voluntary basis, participate in the CCP Supervisory Committee for preparation of decisions in relation to Tier 2 CCPs.
Where the Chair or any of the independent members no longer fulfils the conditions required for the performance of his or her duties or has been found guilty of serious misconduct, the Council may, on a proposal from the Commission which has been approved by the European Parliament, adopt an implementing decision to remove him or her from office. The Council shall act by qualified majority. They shall act independently and objectively in the sole interest of the Union as a whole.
Tasks of the Supervisory Committee
In relation to CCPs authorised or applying for authorisation, the CCP Supervisory Committee shall prepare decisions and carry out the tasks entrusted to ESMA and in the following points: (i) at least annually, conduct a peer review analysis of the supervisory activities of all competent authorities in relation to the authorisation and the supervision of CCPs ; (ii) at least annually, initiate and coordinate Union-wide assessments of the resilience of CCPs to adverse market developments; (iii) promote the regular exchange and discussion among competent authorities; (iv) be informed of and discuss all opinions and recommendations adopted by colleges, in order to contribute to the consistent and coherent functioning of the colleges and foster the coherence of the application of this Regulation among them.
In order to ensure the effective performance of its tasks, the CCP Supervisory Committee should be supported by dedicated staff from ESMA to prepare its meetings, prepare the analyses necessary to carry out its tasks and support it in its international cooperation.
The CCP Supervisory Committee shall take its decisions by a simple majority of its members.
Other amendments aim to:
- strengthen the role of colleges, they should be able to provide opinions on additional supervisory areas of fundamental impact on a CCP’s business operations, including on the assessment of shareholders and members with qualifying holdings of CCPs and outsourcing of operational functions, services or activities;
- provide ESMA with new mandates to (i) develop draft regulatory technical standards on the extension of activities and services and in order to specify the conditions concerning the review of models, stress testing and back testing; (ii) issue necessary guidelines to further specify the common procedures for the supervisory review and evaluation process in relation to CCPs;
- provide that with regard to decisions to be taken in relation to Tier 2 CCPs, the CCP Supervisory Committee shall consult the central banks of issue. Upon conclusion of the period for consultation, the CCP Supervisory Committee shall duly consider the amendments proposed by the central banks of issue;
- clarify accountability: the European Parliament or the Council may invite the Chair and the independent members of the CCP Supervisory Committee to make a statement while fully respecting their independence. They shall make a statement before the European Parliament and answer any questions put by its Members whenever so requested.
The Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs adopted the report by Danuta Maria HÜBNER (EPP, PL) on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Securities and Markets Authority) and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 as regards the procedures and authorities involved for the authorisation of CCPs and requirements for the recognition of third-country CCPs.
As a reminder, the proposal aims to introduce specific amendments to the European Market Infrastructure Regulation ( EMIR ) and the ESMA Regulation with a view to establishing a clear and consistent supervisory framework for EU and third country CCPs.
The committee recommended that European Parliament’s position adopted at first reading under the ordinary legislative procedure should amend the Commission proposal as follows:
ESMA CCP Supervisory Committee : ESMA shall establish a specific ESMA internal committee for the purposes of preparing decisions and carrying out the tasks relating to the supervision of CCPs, of handling tasks related to CCPs in general, and of supervising Union and third-country CCPs in particular. The CCP Supervisory Committee shall be composed of authorities experienced in the supervision of CCPs. It shall be composed of a permanent members (a chair, a vice-chair, four directors, one representative of the ECB, and one non-voting representative of the Commission) and specific non-permanent members for the different CCPs. It would take its decisions by a simple majority of its members.
The chair, the vice-chair and the directors of the CCP Supervisory Committee shall act independently and objectively in the interest of the Union as a whole.
The European Parliament or the Council may invite the chair, the vice-chair or any of the Directors of the CCP Supervisory Committee to make a statement while fully respecting their independence. The chair shall report in writing on the main activities of the CCP Supervisory Committee to the European Parliament where requested.
During any investigations by the European Parliament, the CCP Supervisory Committee shall cooperate with the European Parliament.
National competent authorities : under the amending Regulation, national competent authorities shall continue to exercise their current supervisory responsibilities under Regulation (EU) No 648/2012.
However, in order to promote consistency in the supervision of CCPs throughout the Union, a division of competences depending on the decisions concerned shall be established. Three categories of decisions shall be distinguished: those for which competent authorities should obtain prior consent of ESMA, those for which competent authorities should consult ESMA and those for which competent authorities should remain solely responsible.
Where a competent authority disagrees with the proposed amendment or the objection of ESMA, it shall have the right to submit a reasoned request to the Board of Supervisors asking it to assess that objection or amendment. The Board of Supervisors may either endorse or reject ESMA’s objections or amendments.
Recognition of a third-country CCP : when considering the application of a third-country CCP for recognition, ESMA shall assess the degree of systemic risk that the CCP presents to the financial stability of the Union or of one or more of its Member States on the basis of the objective and transparent criteria provided for in the Regulation. A Commission delegated act should further specify those criteria.
Where a central bank of issue decides to impose an additional requirement on a systemically important third country CCP, it shall strive to make its decision as transparent as possible, while adequately respecting the need to protect confidential or sensitive information.
Central banks of issue shall assess the resilience of recognised third country CCPs to adverse market developments having regard to the risk they pose to the stability of the currency of the central bank of issue, the transmission of monetary policy and the smooth functioning of payment systems. In such cases, cooperation and information sharing between central banks of issue and ESMA should be ensured to prevent duplication.
The ESMA shall put in place cooperation arrangements with the relevant competent authorities of third countries whose legal and supervisory frameworks have been recognised as equivalent to this Regulation that shall cover all elements necessary to ensure, among others, the smooth exchange information, the coordination of supervisory activities, the effective monitoring of regulatory and supervisory developments in the third country and effective cooperation in emergency situations.
In order to facilitate the exchange of information on third country CCPs, colleges for third country CCPs should be established.
OPINION OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK
The ECB has received requests for consultation from the Council of the European Union and the European Parliament on a proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Securities and Markets Authority) and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 as regards the procedures and authorities involved for the authorisation of central counterparties (CCPs) and requirements for the recognition of third-country CCPs.
The ECB supports the initiative set out in the Commission’s proposal to enhance the role of the relevant members of the ESCB, as central banks of issue of the currencies of financial instruments cleared by CCPs, in the process for the supervision of Union CCPs and the recognition of third-country CCPs.
It supports the proposal that the Eurosystem, as the central bank of issue of the euro, should play a more meaningful role with respect to Union and third-country CCPs.
The ECB stresses that significant developments, both globally and in Europe, should increase the risks presented by CCPs to the smooth operation of payment systems and the implementation of the single monetary policy.
First, central clearing has become increasingly cross-border in nature and systemically important.
Second, the withdrawal of the United Kingdom (UK) from the Union will have a major impact on the Eurosystem’s ability to carry out its tasks as central bank of issue for the euro. At present, certain CCPs established in the UK clear significant volumes of euro-denominated transactions.
The Eurosystem’s ability to monitor and manage the risks posed by UK CCPs will be adversely affected if UK CCPs are no longer subject to the regulatory and supervisory framework for Union CCPs under Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
The proposed regulation envisages an enhanced role for the Eurosystem as central bank of issue for the euro in the framework under Regulation (EU) No 648/2012. In order to ensure that the Eurosystem can carry out this role, it suggested that the ECB be granted regulatory competence over clearing systems for financial instruments , in particular CCPs, by means of an amendment to Article 22 of the Statute of the ESCB.
The ECB makes the following specific observations:
The requirement to obtain the consent of the central bank of issue regarding certain draft decisions : the ECB strongly welcomes the role envisaged for the central banks of issue under the proposed regulation, which will enable the members of the ESCB to have meaningful and effective involvement in decision-making on matters of direct relevance to the fulfilment of the basic tasks of the ESCB under the Treaties, and the achievement of its primary objective of maintaining price stability. The ECB has a number of comments in this regard.
First, where the proposed regulation clarifies that the consent of the central bank of issue must be obtained ‘in respect of any aspect of those decisions relating to the carrying out of their monetary policy tasks’, it should be emphasised that this phrase is intended to clarify the monetary policy context in which the central bank of issue carries out its role and the purpose the role fulfils. Moreover, with regard to which draft decisions should be subject to the consent of the central bank of issue, the ECB considers that the proposed regulation should ensure the involvement of the central bank of issue regarding certain further key aspects of CCP risk management. The ECB considers that in relation to both Union and third-country CCPs, the consent of the central bank of issue should also be required regarding draft decisions taken in respect of the CCP’s margin requirements.
Review and assessment : The ECB underlines that the review and evaluation process, as amended by the proposed regulation, will fulfill the objective of ensuring that CCPs are in a permanent position to comply with Regulation (EU) No 648/2012. According to the ECB, an important corollary of the requirements of the Regulation would be the consultation of the issuing central bank during the review and appraisal process, when it is considered necessary by the competent authority to ensure that the said bank can assume the role assigned to it by the proposed regulation.
Review and evaluation : the ECB underlines that the review and evaluation process, as amended by the proposed regulation, will serve the key purpose of ensuring that CCPs comply with Regulation (EU) No 648/2012. According to the ECB, the consultation of the central bank of issue in the review and evaluation process, where deemed necessary by the competent authority to ensure that the central bank of issue can fulfil its role under the proposed regulation, would be an important corollary to the requirements.
ECB advisory role : the ECB considers that it should be consulted in due time on any draft Union acts, including draft delegated and implementing acts, falling within its fields of competence.
Cooperation and exchange of information between the CCP Executive Session and the supervisory colleges : the ECB notes that the CCP Executive Session does not include all members of the supervisory colleges, and does not include the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB).
In order to ensure that the ESRB and the supervisory college members which are not also members of the CCP Executive Session have all the relevant information necessary for the purpose of carrying out their tasks, it is crucial that there is an obligation to exchange information between the CCP Executive Session and the ESRB and the other supervisory college members which are not members of the CCP Executive Session.
The ECB as a non-voting member of the ESMA Board of Supervisors : the ECB considers that it is also vital for the ECB be included as a non-voting member of the ESMA Board of Supervisors, to ensure effective cooperation, coordination and exchange of information between central banks and supervisory authorities, and to ensure that the guidelines, recommendations and other practical instruments and convergence tools developed by the ESMA Board of Supervisors take into account the ECB’s perspective and expertise.
Interaction with the proposed regulation on a framework for the recovery and resolution of central counterparties : the ECB would see merit in promoting the consistency and effective interaction of recovery and resolution plans across CCPs, and in monitoring and mitigating their aggregate risk implications for financial stability in the Union.
PURPOSE: to present a proposal for an amendment of a pending proposal for a Regulation amending Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Securities and Markets Authority) and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 as regards the procedures and authorities involved for the authorisation of CCPs and requirements for the recognition of third-country CCPs (EMIR II Commission's proposal).
CONTENT: the abovementioned proposal seeks to equip the Capital Markets Union with a more effective and consistent supervisory system for central counterparties (CCPs). It intends to ensure closer cooperation between national competent authorities for the supervision of CCPs and central banks responsible for Union currencies.
A new body is proposed to be established within the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) ( CCP Executive Session ) which will be responsible for handling tasks related to CCPs in general and supervising Union and third-country CCPs in particular.
The CCP Executive Session is to be composed of permanent and CCP-specific members.
That proposal also enhances ESMA's role in colleges , by providing that the permanent members of the CCP Executive Session shall participate in college meetings for CCPs under Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, with the Head of the CCP Executive Session chairing and managing those meetings.
The present document is put forward to supplement the EMIR II Commission's proposal . It forms part of a package of measures with the purpose of enhancing the supervision of EU financial markets by improving the operation of the system of European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs).
This document specifically envisages allocating an additional task to the CCP Executive Session . That addition is considered necessary in view of the effective setting up of the CCPs Executive Session prior to the upcoming ESAs reform.
The additional task shall be to take decisions and actions on CCP matters with respect to specific articles of this Regulation.
PURPOSE: to strengthen the supervision of CCPs in the EU and third countries with a view to consolidating the financial stability of the European Union (EU).
PROPOSED ACT: Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council.
ROLE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: the European Parliament decides in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure and on an equal footing with the Council.
BACKGROUND: following the financial crisis, and in line with the commitment made at the 2009 G20 in Pittsburgh, the EU adopted Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council on European market infrastructures (EMIR) to reduce systemic risk associated with the significant use of derivatives in order to preserve financial stability.
The EMIR contains several measures to ensure that standardised over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives contracts are cleared through a Central Counterparty (CCP). It introduces strict prudential, organisational and business conduct requirements for CCPs and established arrangements for their prudential supervision to minimise any risk to users of a CCP and underpin systemic stability.
There are currently 17 central counterparties established in the EU , all of which are approved under EMIR to offer their services within the Union, although not all of them are authorised to clear all asset classes (e.g. only 2 CCPs clear credit derivatives, only 2 CCPs clear inflation derivatives). An additional 28 third-country CCPs have been recognised under EMIR's equivalence provisions, allowing them to offer their services in the EU.
Under EMIR, EU CCPs are supervised by colleges of national supervisors, the European Securities and Markets Authority ( ESMA ), relevant members of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB), and other relevant authorities.
Since the adoption of EMIR, the volume of CCP activity – in the EU and globally - has grown rapidly both in scale and in scope. As of end of June 2016, around 62% of the global value of all OTC derivatives contracts and asset classes (interest rates, credit default, foreign exchange, etc.) were centrally cleared by CCPs, which is equivalent to $337 trillion.
The growing importance of CCPs in the financial system and the associated concentration of credit risk in these infrastructures have drawn the attention of governments, regulators, supervisors, central banks and market participants.
The Commission therefore considers that further reforms to harmonise and strengthen the monitoring of EU and third country CCPs are now necessary.
The proposal is in line with the Commission proposal for a Regulation on CCP Recovery and Resolution in November 2016. It complements the Commission's proposal for targeted amendments to EMIR which seeks to simplify certain EMIR requirements and make them more proportionate in order to reduce excessive costs for market participants, without compromising financial stability. This proposal should therefore provide further incentives for market participants to use central clearing – again reinforcing the importance of CCPs within the financial system.
It also takes into account feedback received following the publication of the Commission's Communication on responding to challenges for critical financial market infrastructures.
The objective of the proposal is to ensure that authorities are appropriately prepared to address a failing CCP, safeguarding financial stability and limiting taxpayer costs. The CCP Recovery and Resolution proposal refocused attention on the supervisory arrangements for EU and third country CCPs included in EMIR and the extent to which these arrangements can be made more effective five years after adoption of EMIR. This proposal is currently under negotiations in the European Parliament and the Council. That ongoing work-stream needs to be coordinated and consistent with the current proposal.
IMPACT ASSESSMENT: the preferred options in the impact assessment relate to targeted amendments of the of the supervisory arrangements of EMIR applying both to CCPs established in the EU and to third-country CCPs with a view to:
enhancing the supervision of CCPs established in the EU : the current supervisory arrangements should be streamlined and further centralised through the establishment of a European supervisory mechanism, ensuring the proper involvement of national authorities, central banks of issue and ESMA within the scope of their responsibilities; enhancing supervisory arrangements within the EU designed to mitigate the risks related to third-country CCPs : these CCPs could be subject to a ‘sliding scale’ of additional supervisory requirements by ESMA and relevant CBIs based on objective criteria or thresholds.
CONTENT: this proposal aims to introduce specific amendments to the EMIR and ESMA regulations with a view to establishing a clear and coherent supervisory arrangements for CCPs established in the EU and in third countries.
The objective is to ensure that the EU authorities and national authorities are able to cope with a failing CCP, maintain financial stability and avoid that costs associated with the restructuring and the resolution of failing CCPs fall on taxpayers.
The main elements of the proposal are:
Creation of a new supervisory mechanism : the proposal also ensures closer cooperation between supervisory authorities and central banks responsible for EU currencies. To achieve this, a newly-created supervisory mechanism will be established within European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) ('CCP Executive Session') which will be responsible for ensuring a more coherent and consistent supervision of EU CCPs as well more robust supervision of CCPs in non-EU countries, or 'third countries'.
The proposed amendments focus on (i) the accountability and independence of the members of the CCP Executive Session; (ii) the interactions between the CCP Executive Session and the tasks of the Executive Director of ESMA; (iii) strengthening ESMA's information-gathering capacity; and (iv) the conditions and procedures for the authorisation and the supervision of the CCPs established in the Union.
Third country central counterparties : the proposal aims to make the process of recognition and supervision of third country CCPs stricter for those countries which are of systemic importance to the EU.
The proposal introduces a new "two tier" system for classifying third-country CCPs. Non-systemically important CCPs (Tier 1) will continue to be able to operate under the existing EMIR equivalence framework.
However, systemically important CCPs (so-called Tier 2 CCPs) will be subject to stricter requirements . These requirements include:
compliance with the necessary prudential requirements for EU-CCPs while taking into account third-country rules; confirmation from the relevant EU central banks that the CCP complies with any additional requirements set by those central banks (e.g. the availability or type of collateral held in a CCP, segregation requirements, liquidity arrangements, etc.); the agreement of a CCP to provide ESMA with all relevant information and to enable on-site inspections, as well as the necessary safeguards confirming that such arrangements are valid in the third country.
In the event that certain CCPs may be of particular systemic importance for the EU financial system, the Commission could, at the request of ESMA and in agreement with the relevant central bank, decide that a CCP will only be able to provide services in the Union if it establishes itself in the EU.
BUDGETARY IMPLICATION: the impact of the legislative proposal on expenditure is as follows: (i) the hiring of 47 new temporary staff at ESMA (from August 2018); (ii) the cost of these new temporary agents will be fully financed by the fees raised from industry (no impact on the EU budget).
As ESMA would however incur costs under the Regulation from the entry into force of the Regulation, there is a need to obtain additional budget from the EU in 2018 and 2019 in order to cover for at least the 12 first months of operations following the entry into force of the Regulation.
The estimated impact on expenditure is estimated at EUR 4 310 555 in 2018 and EUR 7 788 789 in 2019 .
DELEGATED ACTS: the proposal contains provisions empowering the Commission to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the EU.

Amendment 107 #
Proposal for a regulation Citation 1 Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article
Amendment 108 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 (1) Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council46 requires standardised OTC derivatives contracts to be cleared through a Central Counterparty (CCP) in line with similar requirements in other G20 countries. That Regulation also introduced strict prudential, organisational and business conduct requirements for CCPs and established arrangements for their prudential supervision in order to minimise risks to users of a CCP and underpin

Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 (1) Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council46 requires standardised OTC derivatives contracts to be cleared through a Central Counterparty (CCP) in line with similar requirements in other G20 countries. That Regulation also introduced strict prudential, organisational and business conduct requirements for CCPs and established arrangements for their prudential supervision in order to minimise risks to users of a CCP and underpin financial stability. The G20 objectives set at the 2009 Pittsburgh summit should continue to be implemented in full in order to take full advantage of the benefits to financial stability. __________________ 46 Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2012 on OTC derivatives, central counterparties and trade repositories. OJ L 201, 27.7.2012, p. 1.
Amendment 110 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 (2) Since the adoption of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, the volume of CCP activity in the Union and globally has grown rapidly in scale and in scope. The expansion in CCP activity is set to continue in the coming years with the introduction of additional clearing obligations and the rise in voluntary clearing by counterparties not subject to a clearing obligation. The Commission’s proposal of 4 May 201747 to amend Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 in a targeted manner, to improve its effectiveness and proportionality, will create further incentives for CCPs to offer central clearing of derivatives to counterparties and facilitate access to clearing to small financial and non- financial counterparties.
Amendment 111 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 (2) Since the adoption of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, the volume of CCP activity in the Union and globally has grown rapidly in scale and in scope. The expansion in CCP activity, especially in the context of OTC equity derivatives and currency derivatives as asset classes in the original scope, is set to continue in the coming years with the introduction of additional clearing obligations and the rise in voluntary clearing by counterparties not subject to a clearing obligation. The Commission’s proposal of 4 May 201747 to amend Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 in a targeted manner, to improve its effectiveness and proportionality, will create further incentives for CCPs to offer central clearing of derivatives to counterparties and facilitate access to clearing to small financial and non- financial counterparties. These are the main elements that will ensure the G20 objectives are implemented in full for the sake of greater financial stability in the long term. Deeper and more integrated capital markets resulting from the Capital Markets Union (CMU) will further increase the need for cross-border clearing in the Union, thus further increasing the importance and the interconnectedness of CCPs within the

Amendment 113 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 a (new) (2a) Due in particular to the obligation to provide central clearing as a result of cross-sectoral G20 cooperation from 2008 onwards, and against a backdrop in which cross-border interoperability has been enforced on market infrastructures, market risks are being concentrated amongst CCPs more than ever before, and the way they are interconnected is increasing the risk of a domino effect and of the global financial system collapsing as the result of just one CCP going bankrupt.
Amendment 114 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 a (new) (2a) CCPs established within the Union differ in terms of the nature of their business, legal and organisational structure as well as their risk profile, size and legal status. Regulation should reflect this diversity.
Amendment 115 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 3 (3) The number of CCPs currently established in the Union and authorised under Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 remains relatively limited, standing at 17 in June 2017. 28 third-country CCPs have been recognised under the equivalence provisions of that Regulation, allowing them also to offer their services to clearing members and trading venues established in the Union48 . Clearing markets are well integrated across the Union but highly concentrated in certain asset classes and highly interconnected. Euro clearing is highly concentrated in the City of London, where ever year British-based CCPs process around €1,300 billion of euro-denominated trades. The concentration of risk makes the failure of a CCP a low-

Amendment 117 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 3 a (new) (3a) In line with the adoption of the forthcoming Regulation on CCP Recovery and Resolution, an appropriate mechanism needs to be developed in order to ensure that the supervisor taking the decision to put a CCP into resolution has access to ‘the lender of last resort’ resource.
Amendment 118 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 5 a (new) (5a) The architecture for the supervision of CCP relies on the building of competences, expertise, capabilities, as well as cooperative relationships and exchanges with other institutions. Since all of those are processes that develop over time and following their own dynamic, the design of a functional, effective and efficient supervisory system for CCPs should take into account its potential evolution in the long term.
Amendment 119 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 6 (6) The supervisory arrangements under Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 are
Amendment 120 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 6 a (new) (6a) This regulation should seek to support enhanced global supervisory cooperation, therefore once equivalence has been granted to a third country jurisdiction, the relevant authorities should seek to avoid duplication and allow supervisors to rely on and/or defer to each other’s regulatory and supervisory frameworks.
Amendment 121 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 6 a (new) (6a) All CCPs have characteristics that make them systemic, to some degree, for the Union or for a Member State, but their size, business model and risk profile differ. The approach taken to the supervision of CCPs should be proportionate and a proper balance should be established between national and Union-wide supervision, taking into account the systemic nature of the CCPs concerned.
Amendment 122 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 6 b (new) (6b) In order to allow for a proportionate approach to the supervision of CCPs, a tiering system shall be established by ESMA, distinguishing between significant Union CCPs and less significant Union CCPs on the basis of the degree of systemic risk that the CCP presents to the financial stability of the Union. ESMA shall assess the degree of systemic risk on the basis of objective and transparent criteria set out in this Regulation. In order to properly involve ESMA in the setting of those criteria, they should be further specified through a Regulatory Technical Standard.
Amendment 123 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 6 c (new) (6c) This Regulation establishes new tasks to be carried out by ESMA relating to the supervision of significant Union CCPs. As regards the supervision of less significant Union CCPs, ESMA should be able to issue general instructions to national competent authorities, according to which their tasks are performed and supervisory decisions are adopted, as well as, where necessary to ensure consistent application of high supervisory standards, decide, at any time, on its own initiative after consulting with national competent authorities or upon request by a national competent authority, exercise directly itself any supervisory task over CCPs. Those powers over less significant Union CCPs should be additional and complementary to other tasks and powers conferred to ESMA and already exercised over those CCPs under this Regulation or under Regulation 1095/2010.
Amendment 124 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 7 (7) The
Amendment 125 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 8 (8) The Treaties have established an economic and monetary union whose currency is the euro, and the European Central Bank (ECB) as an Institution of the Union for this purpose. The Treaties also provide that the ESCB shall be governed by the decision-making bodies of the ECB, and the ECB alone may authorise the issue of the euro.
Amendment 126 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 8 (8) The Treaties have established an economic and monetary union whose currency is the euro, and the European Central Bank (ECB) as an Institution of the Union
Amendment 127 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 8 a (new) (8a) The potential high correlation between euro clearing activity and monetary policy means it is in the interests of the citizens of the EU and the Eurozone for euro-clearing to be primarily based in the eurosystem where it can be subject to full EU supervision. The striking down of the ECB’s ‘location policy’ (which required CCPs with at least €5 billion in daily exposure to be located in the eurosystem) by the EU General Court was not based on an assessment of the substance of the policy, which aimed to manage systemic risk.
Amendment 128 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 9 (9) In view of the global nature of financial markets and of the need to address inconsistencies in the supervision of Union and third-country CCPs, ESMA’s ability to promote convergence in the supervision of CCPs should be enhanced.
Amendment 129 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 9 (9) In view of the global nature of financial markets and of the need to address inconsistencies in the supervision of Union and third-country CCPs, ESMA’s ability to promote convergence in the supervision of CCPs that are similar in nature should be enhanced. In order to confer new roles and responsibilities on ESMA, Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a European Supervisory Authority (ESMA)53 should be amended. __________________ 53 Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European

Proposal for a regulation Recital 9 (9) In view of the global nature of financial markets and of the need to address inconsistencies in the supervision of Union and third-country CCPs, ESMA’s legally binding ability to promote convergence in the supervision of CCPs should be enhanced. In order to confer new roles and responsibilities on ESMA, Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a European Supervisory Authority (ESMA)53 should be amended. __________________ 53 Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Securities and Markets Authority), amending Decision No 716/2009/EC and repealing Commission Decision 2009/77/EC (OJ L 331, 15.12.2010, p.84

Proposal for a regulation Recital 10 (10) A specific Executive Session (“CCP Executive Session”) should be created within the Board of Supervisors of ESMA to handle tasks related to CCPs in general, and supervise Union and third- country CCPs in particular, including relocation decisions or requirements. In order to guarantee a smooth establishment of the CCP Executive Session, it is necessary to clarify its interactions with the Board of Supervisors of ESMA, its organisation and the tasks it should perform.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 11 a (new) (11a) In order to ensure a coherent supervisory approach, ESMA shall, in addition to the stress tests as set out in this regulation, take note of the stress tests carried out by CCPs as part of their recovery and resolution arrangements. These stress tests, during which a CCP should consider its arrangements across the Union in terms of their aggregate effect on Union financial stability, should be included in crisis simulation exercises with respect to potential system-wide stress events.

Amendment 170 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 21 (21) While national competent authorities continue to exercise their current supervisory responsibilities under Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, the prior consent of ESMA should be required for certain decisions in order to promote consistency in the supervision of CCPs throughout the Union, and being conscious of the issue of interdependencies between the clearing system and the broader financial system. A specific mechanism is introduced for cases of disagreement between ESMA and the national competent authorities. Similarly, there is a need to better reflect the mandates of the central banks of issue concerning their monetary policy responsibilities, due to the potential risks that the malfunctioning of a CCP could pose to the implementation of the monetary policy of the Union and the promotion of the smooth operation of payment systems.
Amendment 171 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 22 (22) In order to enable ESMA to conduct its tasks with regards to CCPs effectively, both Union and third-country CCPs should pay supervisory fees for ESMA’s supervisory and administrative tasks. These fees should be proportionate to the turnover of the services the CCP provides in a Union currency to EU clearing members. These fees should cove
Amendment 172 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 22 a (new) (22a) The Chair of the CCP Supervisory Committee shall be a full-time, independent professional. The Chair shall be appointed on the basis of merit, skills, knowledge of clearing, post-trading and financial matters, and of experience relevant to CCP supervision and regulation. The Chair shall be chosen on the basis of an open selection procedure organised by the supervisory colleges, which shall respect the principles of gender balance, experience and qualification. The Chair shall not hold any other office at national, Union, or international level. The supervisory colleges shall provide to the European Parliament a shortlist of candidates for the position of Chair of the CCP Supervisory Committee and shall inform the Council and the Commission of the shortlist. The supervisory colleges shall submit a proposal for the appointment of the Chair of the CCP Supervisory Committee to the European Parliament for approval. Following the approval of that proposal, the Council shall adopt an implementing decision to appoint the Chair of the Supervisory Committee. The Council shall act by qualified majority. Where the Chair of the CCP Supervisory Committee no longer fulfils the conditions required for the performance of his or her duties or has been found guilty of serious misconduct, the Council, having received the consent of the supervisory colleges, may, on a proposal from the Commission which has been approved by the European Parliament, adopt an implementing decision to remove him or her from office. The Council shall act by qualified majority. The European Parliament or the Council may inform the supervisory colleges that they consider the conditions for the removal of the Chair of the CCP Supervisory Committee to be fulfilled, to which the Commission shall respond.

Amendment 174 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 24 (24) A significant amount of financial instruments denominated in the currencies of the Member States are cleared by recognised third-country CCPs. This will increase substantially when the United Kingdom withdraws from the Union and the CCPs established there will no longer be governed by the requirements of this Regulation. Cooperation arrangements agreed in the supervisory colleges will no longer be subject to the safeguards and procedures of this Regulation, including the Court of Justice of the European Union. This implies significant challenges for Union and Member State authorities in safeguarding financial stability. Derivatives in EU currencies should thus be cleared within the EU, whilst derivatives in euros should be cleared in the Eurozone.

Amendment 176 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 25 (25) As part of its commitment to integrated financial markets, the Commission should continue to determine by way of equivalence decisions that the legal and supervisory frameworks of third countries fulfil the requirements of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012. In order to enhance the implementation of the current equivalence regime in relation to CCPs, the Commission
Amendment 177 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 25 (25) As part of its commitment to integrated financial markets, the Commission should continue to determine by way of equivalence decisions that the legal and supervisory frameworks of third countries fulfil the requirements of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012. In order to enhance the implementation of the current equivalence regime in relation to CCPs, the Commission should be able to, if necessary, specify further the criteria for assessing the equivalence of third-country CCP regimes. It is also necessary to empower ESMA with the supervision of regulatory and supervisory developments in those third-country CCP regimes that have been deemed equivalent by the Commission. This is in order to ensure that the equivalence criteria and any specific conditions set for their use continue to be satisfied by third countries. ESMA should report its findings to the Commission, the European Parliament and the Council on a confidential basis.

Amendment 179 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 25 a (new) Amendment 180 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 26 (26) The Commission is currently able to amend, suspend, review or revoke an equivalence decision at any time, in particular where developments occur in a third country which materially affect the elements assessed in accordance with the equivalence requirements under this Regulation. Where a third country’s relevant authorities no longer cooperate with ESMA or other Union supervisors in good faith or fail to comply on a continuous basis with the applicable equivalence requirements, the Commission is also able to, inter alia, put an authority of the third country on notice or publish a specific recommendation. Where the Commission decides at any time to revoke a third country’s equivalence, it is able to delay the date of application of that decision in order to address the risks to financial stability or of market disruptions.
Amendment 181 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 26 a (new) (26a) Should voluntary or mandatory relocation of clearing houses take place in future as a result of this revision, further steps must be taken to ensure that competition is guaranteed in the clearing system so that a new EU-based concentration of CCPs does not result from this change.

Amendment 183 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 28 (28) Once the Commission has determined the legal and supervisory framework of a third country as equivalent to the Union framework, the process to recognise CCPs from that third country should take into account the risks those CCPs present for the financial stability of the Union or for the Member State. If the risk posed to the EU financial system is high, based on a defined and transparent criteria, then recognition should be denied.
Amendment 184 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 28 (28) Once the Commission has determined the legal and supervisory framework of a third country as equivalent to the Union framework, the process to recognise CCPs and related services from that third country should take into account the risks those CCPs present for the financial stability of the Union or for the Member State.
Amendment 185 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 29 (29) When considering the application of a third-country CCP for recognition, ESMA should assess the degree of systemic risk that the CCP presents to the financial stability of the Union or of one or more of its Member States on the basis of objective and transparent criteria set out in this Regulation. A Commission delegated act should further specify these criteria. In this regard, specific features concerning certain agricultural derivative contracts listed and executed on regulated markets in third countries, which relate to markets that largely serve domestic non-financial counterparties in that third country who manage their commercial risks through those contracts, may pose a negligible risk to clearing members and trading venues in the Union as they have a low degree of systemic interconnectedness with the rest of the financial system.
Amendment 186 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 29 (29) When considering the application of a third-country CCP for recognition, ESMA should assess the degree of systemic risk that the CCP or CCP’s clearing service offered in a Union currency and provided to EU clearing members, presents to the financial stability of the Union on the basis of objective and transparent criteria set out in this Regulation. A Commission delegated act should further specify these criteria.
Amendment 187 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 29 a (new) (29a) When determining whether or not a CCP or one or more clearing service offered by the CCP is systemically important for the financial stability of the Union, ESMA should only take into account the nature, size and complexity of a CCP’s business in the EU. A non- EU CCP should not be considered to be systemically important if its EU business is not significant, regardless of the size of its global business.
Amendment 188 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 30 (30) CCPs that are not systemically important to the financial stability of the Union or one of its Member States should be considered as ‘Tier 1’ CCPs. CCPs offering a clearing service in a Union currency to EU clearing members that are systemically important, or likely to become systemically important, to the financial stability of the Union or one of its Member States should be considered as ‘Tier 2’ CCPs, or ‘Tier 2’ service lines. Where ESMA determines that a third-country CCP, or clearing service offered in a Union currency to EU clearing members is not systemically important to the financial stability of the Union, the existing recognition conditions under Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 should apply to that CCP or clearing service. Where ESMA determines that a third-country CCP, or a CCP’s clearing service offered in a Union currency to EU clearing members, is systemically important, additional requirements proportionate to the degree of risk presented by that CCP, or clearing service thereof, should be established. ESMA should only recognise such a CCP, or one or more of the clearing service lines provided, where that CCP complies with these requirements.

The central bank(s) of issue should provide ESMA with confirmation whether or not the CCP complies with any additional requirements as quickly as possible and in any case 180 days from the CCP’s application to ESMA.

The requirements for systemically- important CCPs should therefore be applied in a manner proportionate to the risks that the CCP may present to the Union. Where ESMA and the relevant central bank(s) of issue conclude that a third-country CCP is of such systemic importance that additional requirements will not ensure the financial stability of the Union, ESMA should be able to recommend to the Commission that that CCP should not be recognised. In its recommendation, ESMA should assess the net benefits of such a move with regards to safeguarding the interests of EU taxpayers and financial stability. The Commission should be able to adopt an implementing act declaring that the third- country CCP should be established in the Union and authorised as such to provide clearing services in the Union.

The Commission should be able to adopt an implementing act declaring that the third- country CCP should be established in the Union and authorised as such to provide clearing services in the Union. Following a recommendation by ESMA, the Commission should be able to impose any additional requirement that it deems necessary to safeguard the financial stability of the EU to the systemically- important third-country CCPs.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 35 (35) ESMA should also be able to take into account the extent to which the compliance of a systemically-important third-country CCP with the requirements applicable in that third country can be compared to the compliance of that CCP with the requirements of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012. When conducting this assessment, ESMA should take into account, where relevant, whether the Commission has adopted an implementing acts determining that the legal and supervisory arrangements of the third country where the CCP is established are equivalent to those of this Regulation and any conditions which the application of that implementing act may be subject to. When conducting this assessment, to ensure proportionality, ESMA should also consider the extent to which the financial instruments cleared by the CCP are denominated in Union currencies. The Commission should adopt a delegated act specifying further the modalities and conditions to assess such comparable compliance.
Amendment 209 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 35 (35) ESMA should also be able to take into account the extent to which the compliance of a systemically-important third-country CCP with the requirements applicable in that third country can be compared to the compliance of that CCP with the requirements of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012.
