Letter to EC and ESAs on Time-limited Derogations for Intragroup Transactions and Equity Options and Indexes

ISDA welcomes the final report of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on the clearing Regulatory Technical Standards (clearing RTS) under the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR), proposing an extension of the equivalent derogation until December 21, 2020.
