On March 14, ISDA responded to the European Commission’s ‘Fitness Check’ of supervisory reporting requirements with several key recommendations, including:
- A ‘report once/permission access to data once’ regime: firms would produce a single dataset which the relevant regulators could cut to suit their particular regulatory objectives;
- Alignment of reporting rules across jurisdictions – including continued ISDA advocacy for single-sided reporting globally; and
- Supporting global harmonisation of the unique transaction identifier, unique product identifier and critical data elements of OTC derivatives reported to trade repositories.
