The Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Over the Counter Derivatives, Central Counterparties and Trade Repositories) (No. 2) Regulations 2013 were laid before
Parliament on 31 July: see
here or
here (
pdf). An explanatory memorandum is available
here (
pdf). The Regulations concern the clearing of financial transactions through recognised clearing houses and make amendments to insolvency law to facilitate the segregation and transfer of indirect clients’ assets and positions. Changes are also made to the supervisory, investigatory and enforcement powers of the
Bank of England and
Financial Conduct Authority. These changes are necessitated by the
EMIR Regulation (EU 648/2012) and
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 149/2013.
