REGIS-TR
EMIR – Key Cornerstones of the EU Regulation
ESMA Final Report
Key components of the reporting regulation:
Reporting: Financial as well as non-financial counterparties must report all, cleared as well as uncleared, exchange- as well as OTC-traded contracts to a TR – no threshold applies – no exceptions on derivatives products
Reporting: Phasing of products to be reported – Interest Rate, Credit and respective listed derivatives to be reported as of September 2013, all other product classes three months later (January 2014)
Timing: All derivatives positions must be reported to a trade repository (limit T+1)
Live contracts are to be “backloaded” into a trade repository post-applicability of the regulation, depending on the start date for the respective product class
The new regulation applies from 23 September 2013

4. Two counterparties executing a trade in a venue
Outstanding issues include;
Is it always clear who is to be understood as the original counterparty and subject to a reporting obligation?Is it reasonable to assume that a single trade id will be used from trade venue through novation to netting?Can we assume in all cases that the «principal» has the all the information required to fulfill its reporting obligation and/or delegate that responsibility to a CCP?
When simple principles meet market reality
