If you know that Lexitor is not the name of a former Roman consul and WIBOR is not a new cyborg in the next Star Trek movie, some people may think you are half way a banking law expert. If you furthermore understand that legislation is just one side of the medal and jurisdiction can be even more important for both industry and customers, you get even closer … Preliminary rulings of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) are often landmarks for the developments of EU law and beyond. That may in itself not be a very astonishing fact. But as EU harmonisation progresses, ECJ rulings more and more affect not only the parties of the case and member states but other stakeholders of many kinds. As the group of stakeholders who can give input to support well informed ECJ decisions is limited (see Art 23 of the ECJ Statute), other interested parties don’t have a say presently. From this background the European Banking Federation co-organised with ACCIS on 17 October 2024 the second conference on access to requests for preliminary rulings for third parties. Two panels with most distinguished speakers discussed ways and models for such an enhanced participation. Very much food for thought, especially as the recent reform of parts of the ECJ procedural rules demonstrated that an adequate change is possible - which is a promising sign for further steps. Many Thanks to the panelists Dr. Toms Krumins, Marc Mossé, Dr. Markus Kellner, Prof. Marie-Anne Frison-Roche (𝒎𝒂𝒇𝒓), Dr. Kathleen Gutman, Prof. Jens-Hinrich Binder, Prof. Marianne M. Rødvei Aagaard as well as to organizers and moderators Wim Mijs, Dr. Mathias Otto, Blazej Blasikiewicz and the EBF Team as well as Kiki Tsourou and Enrique Velazquez of ACCIS. #bankenverband #bankrecht #ebf #ecj #accis

On the occasion of The Network Forum, in vibrant Warsaw, I shared some of the ECSDA thoughts with participants on how CSDs provide scalability for markets: ✔ through consolidation projects, ✔ by establishing CSD Links and passporting (allowing issuance of non-domestic issuers by supporting their law), ✔ working on standardisation and alignment of practices. There are however limits to what CSDs can achieve in a fragmented legal, tax and investor protection environment. As “notaries of financial markets” in the Union, CSDs are asked to apply coherently incoherent rules 🤔 - that contradiction should not be solely for the CSDs to solve. It is a question for all of us in the Union and first, to the authorities: how serious we are about the #CMU? If so, then tackling legal and tax fragmentation to solve the root cause is essential. Still, we also need to remember that it’s not because of a notary (as efficient and innovative as it can be 😉), that one chooses where to buy an apartment. 🤣 European Central Securities Depositories Association (ECSDA) #PostTrade #CSD The Network Forum

On September 19, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) welcomed the introduction of new financial market infrastructure (FMI) laws that significantly enhance its regulatory powers, ensuring a more stable and efficient Australian financial system. These reforms are part of the Treasury Laws Amendment (Financial Market Infrastructure and Other Measures) Bill 2024. Key Highlights: - Strengthened Regulatory Regime: The new laws empower ASIC and the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to better monitor, manage, and respond to risks related to FMIs, including financial market operators, clearing and settlement facilities, and derivative trade repositories. - Enhanced Powers: ASIC now has expanded authority to regulate FMIs, enforce compliance, and promote fair and effective service provision by licensed clearing and settlement facilities, ensuring the resilience and stability of Australia’s capital markets. - Collaborative Approach: ASIC Commissioner Simone Constant emphasized the importance of working closely with the RBA and industry to implement these reforms effectively, with a focus on developing updated regulatory guidance and ensuring compliance across the sector. This legislative change marks a significant step forward in maintaining the integrity and stability of Australia’s financial markets, positioning ASIC to more effectively safeguard the financial system against emerging risks.

💡 A global survey by the International Chamber of Commerce estimated that digitisation could cut trade finance costs by up to US$6 billion in 3-5 years and boost banks' trade finance revenues by 10%. As momentum to move away from a paper-dominated system builds, it is important to understand the impact that the Model Law on Electronic Transferable Records (MLETR) has on international trade. 👉🏻 What is MLETR? MLETR is a legislative framework developed by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) with the goal to enable the use of and recognition of electronic documents of title to engage in commercial activities. In our interview with Tianmi Stilphen, Lead of Legal Reform at ICC DSI, we discuss frequently asked questions that come up in discussions about MLETR, including its goal and key principles. You will find answers to questions like: ✅ What are the key principles of MLETR? ✅ How does the alignment of MLETR impact international trade standards? ✅ What are the 8 stages of MLETR alignment?

Sebi's proposed overhaul in handling minor violations by market intermediaries marks a commendable shift towards efficiency. The introduction of summary proceedings aligns with global standards and promises to expedite resolutions significantly. By potentially concluding cases within 50 days, this approach not only reduces the regulatory burden but also enhances investor protection. Streamlining the process for obvious violations allows Sebi to focus on more critical issues, ensuring a more robust market oversight. However, incorporating a brief personal hearing could balance speed with fairness, providing intermediaries a chance to explain their circumstances. Overall, this reform is a strategic move towards a more efficient and effective regulatory environment. https://lnkd.in/gp7GVsdz #SEBI #MarketRegulations #RegulatoryOverhaul #FinancialMarkets #MarketIntermediaries #SummaryProceedings #InvestorProtection #RegulatoryEfficiency
