Summary
Key Points: 
  • ESMA amends and consults on standards for benchmark administrator applications
    The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EUs financial markets regulator and supervisor, today published a Final Report on the review of the regulatory technical standards (RTS) on the form and content of applications for recognition by non-EU benchmark administrators, and a consultation on amendments to the RTS on the information that EU benchmark administrators need to provide in applications for authorisation and registration.
  • This is to ensure that these applications include all necessary information in order for ESMA to assess whether the applicant meets BMR requirements.
  • Third country benchmark administrators who wish to apply for recognition, are encouraged to contact ESMA at [email protected].
  • Input sought on standards for applications for authorisation and registration
    In the consultation also published today, ESMA is seeking stakeholder views on proposed changes to the RTS on authorisation and registration.
