If you didn't already, make sure you read the article to learn the what, the why, and the how it could benefit you 👇 And get in touch to schedule a meeting with Todd and our collateral A-team at Euroclear (Robert Frost, Jonathan Ford, Jonathan Hodder): https://lnkd.in/eEFGuSVj #Euroclear #CollateralConference #SecuritiesFinance #Innovation Securities Finance Times

ESMA has released its Final Report on transparency and enhanced liquidity assessments in equIty markets.   Here is what you need to know about it:   👉  Market capitalization has replaced the free-float in determining liquidity. Instruments like shares will now be assessed for liquidity based on market capitalization thresholds (e.g., EUR 100,000,000).   👉 Trading venues are required to provide more precise and timely trade data. This ensures that market participants can access accurate information in real time, promoting fairness and transparency.   👉 Improved transparency in post-trade reporting ensures more detailed and timely data. As a result, market participants can better assess market conditions and make more informed decisions.   More about ESMA's equity transparency rules and how they might influence the market landscape - https://lnkd.in/djFRXAjp   #ESMA #FinTech

In a few weeks, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) will conclude its consultation on simplified disclosure templates for private #securitizations. EU regulators consider #CLOs to be private, even if market participants tend to think of them as public deals. Esma’s consultation presents a few options, but the most likely outcome is that a few years from now, managers will be able to disclose deal-level data through simpler templates. GlobalCapital's CLO reporter, Victoria Thiele thinks a much more interesting project would be to expand the scope of deals that qualify for the “simple, transparent and standardised” stamp since the consultation is not exactly a radical step to unleash the funding power of securitization.
