EMIR mandates the reporting of all derivatives to ESMA supervised Trade Repositories (TRs), who centrally collect and maintain the records of all derivative contracts. EMIR requires both counterparties to a derivative contract to report its details to TRs.
However, UK counterparties would not be mandated to report under EMIR to EU27 TRs following a no-deal Brexit. Therefore, the statement clarifies the following aspects for different reporting scenarios, namely where both counterparties are from the EU27, both are from the UK, and where one is from EU27 and the other from the UK. The statement clarifies:
Reporting by CCPs and counterparties;
Reconciliation and recordkeeping by TRs;
Access by EU27 authorities;
Portability and aggregation by TRs.
