Trade associations call for deletion of active account proposal
FIA and ten other trade associations have urged EU policymakers to delete the Active Account Requirement proposed in EMIR 3.0. The associations, which represent European end users of derivatives along with providers of clearing services, highlight the detrimental implications of the proposed requirement on EU capital markets, including fragmentation, loss of netting benefits, and making the EU less resilient to market stresses with no benefit to EU financial stability.
