Regulation 16 Cooperation arrangements between the Bank of England and the competent authorities of third countries before IP completion dayF3
United Kingdom
Where the Treasury has made regulations under regulation 14, the Bank of England must take such steps as it considers appropriate to establish co-operation arrangements with the relevant competent authority of the third country in respect of which the regulations have been made.
Such arrangements are to specify such matters as the Bank of England considers appropriate, and may include—
the mechanism for the exchange of information between the Bank of England and the competent authority, including access to all information requested by the Bank of England regarding central counterparties authorised in that third country, such as significant changes to risk models and parameters, extension of central counterparty activities and services, changes in the clients account structure and in the use of payment systems that substantially affect the United Kingdom;
the mechanism for prompt notification to the Bank of England where the competent authority deems a central counterparty it is supervising to be in breach of the conditions of its authorisation or of other law to which it is subject;
the mechanism for prompt notification to the Bank of England by the competent authority where a central counterparty it is supervising has been granted the right to provide clearing services to clearing members or clients established in the United Kingdom;
the procedures concerning the coordination of supervisory activities;
the procedures necessary for the effective monitoring of regulatory and supervisory developments in a third country;
the procedures for third-country authorities to assure the effective enforcement of decisions adopted by the Bank of England;
the procedures for third-country authorities to inform the Bank of England promptly of any emergency situations relating to the recognised central counterparty, including developments in financial markets, which may have an adverse effect on market liquidity and the stability of the financial systems of the United Kingdom and the procedures and contingency measures to address such situations.
On and after F2IP completion day, co-operation arrangements established in accordance with this regulation are to be taken as having been established in accordance with Article 25.7 of the EMIR Regulation.
