Abstract

The paper provides insights into the implementation in the European Union of the Financial Stability Board (FSB) initiatives related to securities financing transactions (SFTs). Securities financing transactions regulation (SFTR) sets out requirements on transparency of SFTs and of reuse. The draft technical standards leverage on existing systems, processes and formats and establish end-to-end use of ISO 20022 extensible markup language (XML). In addition, given the pivotal role of collateral, the reporting requirements provide for a comprehensive data collection of key data elements relating to the collateral and type of collateralisation. The extensive use of ISO 20022 XML should also contribute to enhanced data quality and facilitate the data aggregation and comparison between authorities. Finally, SFTR would also contribute to a better assessment by FSB of risks related to the use of SFTs.
