Introduction On behalf of its wide and diverse international membership (including asset managers and investors, banks and broker-dealers, as well as market infrastructures), the International Capital Market Association (ICMA) would like to take this opportunity to highlight the importance of including Settlement Discipline, in particular the provisions for mandatory buy-ins (MBI), in the Review of CSDR.
ICMA’s Asset Management and Investors Council welcomes the opportunity to comment on the draft delegated act seeking to review research unbundling rules as part of the Commission's overall coronavirus recovery strategy.
ICMA and its European Repo and Collateral Council (ERCC) welcome the Commissions publication of a Call for Evidence on a targeted amendment on the prudential treatment of SFTs under the NSFR and we strongly support the proposal to "extend the current treatment also beyond 28 June 2025, and permanently".
