The European Market Infrastructure Regulation<ref> http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:L:2012:201:0001:0059:EN:PDF</ref> (EMIR) became law within the European Union in 2012, although certain of its requirements came into force only after a period of delay.

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 large contingent credit exposures that may arise as a consequence.
The maximum global total rate of oil extraction and the date of the maximum rate.  


When global Peak oil extraction has passed, global total oil usage must also necessarily decline.


The Regulation achieves this object by three significant requirements for:
Opinions vary about whether global Peak oil will occur in the near future, or whether it has already passed.


#Central clearing and margining of standardised OTC derivatives (with certain exemptions for Non-Financial Counterparties)
#Reporting of all derivative transactions to a trade repository
#Risk mitigation measures for all non cleared derivatives including collateral exchange and  confirmation and reconciliation procedures

1.

The maximum global total rate of oil extraction and the date of the maximum rate.

When global Peak oil extraction has passed, global total oil usage must also necessarily decline.

Opinions vary about whether global Peak oil will occur in the near future, or whether it has already passed.


2.

The similarly defined rate and date in relation to a smaller entity, for example an individual country.


3.

A shorthand term summarising the impossibility of basing long term sustainable growth on finite physical resources.
