  "heading": "Indirect Clearing Arrangements",
  "text": "1. Indirect clearing arrangements with regard to exchange-traded derivatives are permissible provided that those arrangements do not increase counterparty risk and ensure that the assets and positions of the counterparty benefit from protection with equivalent effect to that referred to in Articles 39 and 48 of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012.\n2. The appropriate regulator may make technical standards to specify the types of indirect clearing service arrangements, where established, that meet the conditions referred to in paragraph 1, ensuring consistency with provisions established for OTC derivatives under Chapter II of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 149/2013. For cases other than CCPs, technical standards may also specify the types of indirect clearing service arrangements that meet conditions for reasonable and transparent commercial terms.\n...\n...\nFor the purposes of this paragraph, “appropriate regulator” means—\n(a) the Bank of England, in relation to CCPs;\n(b) the FCA in all other cases.\nThe FCA and the Bank of England must co-ordinate the exercise of their functions when making technical standards under this Article to ensure that the technical standards made under it are mutually compatible.",
