  • ISDA Responds To HM Treasury On Wholesale Market Review

    Date 27/09/2021

    On September 24, 2021, ISDA submitted a response to HM Treasury on the Wholesale Markets Review (WMR). The WMR is a welcome opportunity to tailor the UK’s revised Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MIFID II)/Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation (MIFIR) framework to the UK market, and ISDA members support a large majority of the proposals. However, ISDA has proposed several key changes, including recalibrating the transparency regime for derivatives markets, with the aim of achieving greater, more meaningful transparency in the UK. ISDA welcomes HM Treasury’s proposals that all post-trade risk reduction services should be exempt from the derivatives trading obligation and the scope of the derivatives trading obligation and clearing obligation should be realigned. ISDA also welcomes HM Treasury’s proposals to simplify and improve the systematic internalizer regime.

  • Asset Management Advisory Committee, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Sept. 27, 2021

    Date 27/09/2021

    Thank you, Ed [Bernard].  And thanks to all the hard-working Committee members and panelists.  When Chairman Jay Clayton announced the formal establishment of the AMAC nearly two years ago, he charged it with helping “the Commission ensure that our regulatory approach to asset management meets the needs of retail investors and market participants at a time when the industry is evolving rapidly.” Over the next two years, the AMAC succeeded in addressing many of the pressing issues facing asset managers, and I for one have profited from the work and contribution each of you has made.
