  • EMIR - requires all counterparties are required to report details of any derivative contract they have concluded, or which the counterparty has modified or terminated.
  • MiFID II/MiFIR - governs all aspects of the financial markets, including trading and reporting of many different financial instruments, and requires transactions to be reported to an Approved Reporting Mechanism (ARM).
Australia (ASIC)

What is ASIC?

ASIC stands for Australian Securities and Investments Commission. ASIC’s Reporting Rules 2013 provides a framework for the regulation of OTC derivatives reporting, clearing and trade execution. It requires all Australian entities dealing in OTC derivatives report transactions to an Australian Derivatives Trade Repository (ADTR) licensed by the ASIC.
