EBA consults on draft ITS on the hypothetical capital of a central counterparty

12 July 2013

EBA launched a consultation on draft ITS on the reporting of the hypothetical capital of a central counterparty (CCP). Comments on this consultation should be sent to the EBA by 30 September, 2013.

This set of draft ITS relates to prudential requirements for banks' exposures to central counterparties. In particular, they specify a reporting frequency on a quarterly basis and the template for the information that a CCP has to deliver to all credit institutions and investment firms that are clearing members, as well as to the supervisory authorities competent for those clearing members.

Furthermore, the draft ITS specify the conditions under which the supervisory authorities may request an increase in the reporting frequency.

Comments to this consultation can be sent to the EBA by 30 September 2013. The EBA is expected to submit these draft ITS to the European Commission for endorsement by 1 January, 2014.
