Trade & Transaction Reporting Advisory Support (EU & UK)

Trade & Transaction Reporting Advisory Support (EU & UK) 

Under the EU and UK regulatory frameworks of EMIR, MiFIR, and SFTR, various financial entities, including Investment Firms, Banks, and Funds, are obligated to submit detailed reports to Trade Repositories (TRs), Approved Reporting Mechanisms (ARMs), or their respective regulators. The complexity and specificity of these reports require a thorough understanding of the regulations to ensure compliance. In the EU, supervisory oversight is exercised by NCAs under the coordination of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). In the UK, supervision is carried out by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Both EU and UK regulators have conducted and will likely continue to conduct reviews to assess and enforce compliance, often identifying gaps and deficiencies in the reporting processes. Given the ongoing divergence between EU and UK regimes, including UK-specific updates, firms operating cross-border must ensure compliance with both jurisdictions.
