    Fund Management

    The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EUs Securities Markets regulator, today announces that the first reports by Money Market Funds (MMF) managers under the MMF Regulation (MMFR) should be submitted in September 2020.

  • This change in timeline comes as there will be an update to the XML schemas that should be used for the reporting, and MMF managers will need additional time to comply with the reporting obligation.
  • The requirements of Article 37 of MMF regulation require MMF managers to submit data to National Competent Authorities (NCAs), who will then transmit this to ESMA.
  • That means that the MMF Managers will have to report in September 2020 quarterly reports for both the Q1 and Q2 reporting periods.
