The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EUs securities markets regulator, has today published itsannual peer review reporton the supervision of EU Central Counterparties (CCPs) by National Competent Authorities (NCAs).
- The Peer Review measured the effectiveness of NCA supervisory practices in assessing CCP compliance with EMIRs requirements on liquidity stress testing.
- However, the peer review showed that the assessment of some areas of liquidity stress testing was not always performed or being evidenced sufficiently.
- The CCP Supervisory Committee is mandated to conduct, at least annually, a peer review analysis of the supervisory activities of all NCAs in relation to the authorisation and the supervision of CCPs in accordance with Article 30 of Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 (ESMA Regulation).
