| European Market Infrastructure Regulation<ref> http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:L:2012:201:0001:0059:EN:PDF</ref> (EMIR) came into force as binding law within the European Union in 2012, although certain of its requirements came into force after a period of delay.
| | 1. |
|
| |
|
| The objective of EMIR is to reduce the risks posed to financial systems from the vast web of [[Over the counter]] (OTC) derivative transactions and the contingent large credit exposures that may arise as a consequence. The Regulation achieves this object by three significant requirements for:
| | To relinquish an interest or claim to a piece of property. |
|
| |
|
| • Central clearing and margining of standardised OTC derivatives (with certain exemptions for Non-Financial Counterparties)
| |
|
| |
|
| • Reporting of all derivative transactions to a trade repository
| | 2. |
|
| |
|
| • Risk mitigation measures for all non cleared derivatives including collateral exchange and confirmation and reconciliation procedures
| | In relation to information, to make the information available. |
