EU Securitisation Regulation—timeline This timeline shows key developments relating to Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 (the EU Securitisation Regulation) from January 2024 onwards. For earlier developments, see EU and UK Securitisation Regulations—timeline [Archived]. 2025 Date Source Document Description 1 April 2025 AFME The Joint Associations’ response to the ESMA consultation of February 2025 on the revision of the disclosure framework for private securitisation AFME, Commercial Real Estate Finance Council (CREFC) Europe and International Capital Market Association (ICMA) submitted a joint response to the European Securities and Markets Authority's (ESMA) consultation on revising private securitisation disclosure requirements. The joint response argues against: introducing a simplified reporting regime for EU-originated securitisations before wider reforms, citing concerns about potential changes to private securitisation definitions, continued template-based reporting requirements, and unresolved third-country reporting issues. They propose an alternative approach focusing on supervisory reporting needs while allowing more flexible investor disclosures.See: LNB News 01/04/2025 71. 31 March 2025 EBA Joint Committee Report on the implementation and functioning of the Securitisation Regulation (Article 44) The Joint Committee...

Development of EU climate change policy Context Humans are increasingly influencing the climate and the earth's temperature by burning fossil fuels, cutting down rainforests and farming livestock. All of this adds enormous amounts of greenhouse gases to those naturally occurring in the atmosphere, increasing the greenhouse effect and global warming. Some gases in the earth's atmosphere act a bit like the glass in a greenhouse, trapping the sun's heat and stopping it from leaking back into space. Many of these gases occur naturally but human activity is increasing the concentrations of some of them in the atmosphere, in particular: • carbon dioxide (CO2) • methane • nitrous oxide • fluorinated gases CO2 is the greenhouse gas most commonly produced by human activities and it is responsible for the majority of man-made global warming. Other greenhouse gases, such as methane and nitrous oxide, are emitted in smaller quantities, but they trap heat far more effectively than CO2. Rising emissions are caused by: • burning fossil fuels (ie coal, oil...

What is an approved reporting mechanism (ARM)? What is an approved reporting mechanism? Assimilated Regulation (EU) 600/201 (UK MiFIR) requires investment firms that execute transactions in financial instruments to report details of those transactions to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) as quickly as possible, and not later than the close of the following working day. Transaction reports can be made either by the investment firm itself, an approved reporting mechanism (ARM) acting on its behalf or by the trading venue on which the transaction was executed. An ARM is defined as a person authorised under the Data Reporting Services Regulations 2024, SI 2024/107 (DRS Regulations 2024) to provide the service of reporting details of transactions to the FCA on behalf of investment firms. ARMs, together with approved publication arrangements (APAs) and consolidated tape providers (CTPs), are referred to as data reporting services providers (DRSPs). For detailed information, see Practice Note: UK data reporting services providers — The UK DRSP regime. What operating requirements apply to ARMs? The operating requirements for...
What are the sanctions in English law and arbitration for a party that has destroyed documentary evidence? Sanctions under English law Disclosure under CPR 31—preservation of documents Documents that a party intends to rely on in litigation should be preserved as soon as litigation is contemplated. CPR PD 31B, para 7 expressly requires practitioners to advise their clients of the need to preserve disclosable documents as soon as litigation is contemplated. This obligation encompasses past, present and future information. In relation to the preservation of electronically stored information it is particularly important to ensure that nothing is altered, deleted, lost or destroyed. For more information, see Practice Note: Disclosure—preserving documents. If a party fails adequately to preserve disclosable information, it may face satellite litigation regarding the documents in question. The court may order the party to provide an explanation why documents have not been preserved (Glaxo Wellcome UK Ltd v Sandoz Ltd). If the court considers it appropriate, it may draw adverse inferences against a party which...

MLex: Potentially conflicting legal requirements, national governance approaches to ensure regulatory consistency, as well as clear legal advice to minimise the compliance burden, are the main issues seen by EU Member States in the interplay between the EU AI Act and the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (EU GDPR). European governments have pointed out that the two laws' diverging regulatory approaches might lead to conflicting outcomes, which should be avoided with systematic cooperation between the responsible authorities.
