Exemption from collateralisation

Regulation (EU) No. 648/2012 ("EMIR") imposes an obligation on certain counterparties to collateralise OTC derivative transactions not cleared through central counterparties. However, it is possible to exempt intragroup transactions from this obligation. If such an exemption is approved by the competent supervisory authorities, information on the exemption of intragroup transactions pursuant to Art. 11 para. 14 lit. d EMIR in connection with Art. 20 Delegated Regulation (EU) must be published.
