Response to EMIR Amendment

18 Jul 2017

Energy UK broadly welcomes the changes proposed in the Commission’s draft revision of EMIR. These should reduce unnecessary burdens on non-financial counterparties (NFCs), while ensuring that regulators can maintain effective oversight of OTC derivative markets. Beneficial changes include the following:  Simplification of provisions relating to the clearing threshold and obligation, and removal of the “breach-one-breach-all” criterion;  Streamlining of reporting requirements for NFCs, e.g. in relation to exchange-traded derivatives and transactions with financial counterparties. Some further improvements could be made to the text, e.g.:  Enhanced risk management obligations should only apply where proportionate;  Single-sided reporting requirements could be further clarified;  EMIR should not apply to transactions in other jurisdictions which are non-EU-relevant;  The ban on bank guarantees as collateral should be removed;  The introduction of revised EMIR reporting requirements should be delayed until this revision is finalised.
