Regulation on OTC derivatives, central counterparties and trade repositories with regard to the list of exempted entities

This procedure aims to update the list of entities exempt from certain requirements under the regulation governing over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives, central counterparties, and trade repositories. It ensures that the rules for reporting and clearing financial derivatives remain current and applicable to the right types of financial institutions.

This change primarily affects financial institutions and entities trading derivatives. By refining the list of exemptions, the EU aims to reduce unnecessary administrative burdens for specific entities while maintaining financial stability.
