On 28 May, we said goodbye to Verena Ross, our Executive Director for the past 10 years. She has been a
model for many, professional, approachable, and a powerful voice for women in finance. During its first
decade, ESMA became a respected Authority and a place where people would like to work and develop
thanks to the organisational culture she created.
On 1 June, Natasha Cazenave takes office as the new Executive Director of ESMA. Ms Cazenave said: “I am
honoured by this appointment and eager to work with the members of the Board and ESMA’s committed
staff as the organisation begins a new phase of development.” She was appointed by the ESMA Board of
Supervisors on 20 May. More here.
ESMA has taken over the helm of the Working Group on Euro Risk Free Rates from the ECB. This month’s
issue is taking a closer look at the Working Group and its structure, activities and aims.
Key publications from May include the Call for evidence on Digital Finance, ESMA’s proposal to lower the
reporting threshold for net short positions to 0.1% on a permanent basis, the Guidance on funds’ marketing
communication, the Guidelines on the calculations on positions under SFTR, several consultations and our
response the ESAs consultation. More information on the latter down below.
A full overview of all publications can be found in the newsletter, together with information on next
month’s speaking appearances of ESMA staff, consultations closing in June, and vacancies. For updates,
