Cecabank works with more than 50 institutions to comply with the new EMIR REFIT regulation for reporting to a Trade Repository

Cecabank has expanded its regulatory reporting solution Regulatory Reporting as a Service (RRaaS) to facilitate compliance with new requirements for derivatives contracts. Thus, in addition to covering the reporting requirements of regulations such as EMIR UK, MiFID II and SFTR, it also covers EMIR REFIT requirements

Several institutions have already chosen Cecabank's solution to ensure compliance with EMIR REFIT requirements

MADRID, 8 MAY 2024.- The recent entry into force of the amendment to the EMIR regulation (EMIR REFIT) [1] establishes a series of new obligations in the regulation governing reporting to a Trade Repository for all those investors who trade derivative contracts. The new rules imply greater technical challenges and reporting complexity with significant operational implementation efforts in terms of new data requirements, both in terms of the number of fields to be reported - from 129 in EMIR to 203 in EMIR REFIT - and in terms of the management of the life cycle of transactions.

Cecabank's RRaaS solution, selected by numerous institutions to ensure compliance with EMIR REFIT

Cecabank, a bank specialising in the analysis, development and implementation of solutions concerning compliance with banking regulations, has expanded the scope of its Regulatory Reporting as a Service (RRaaS) service and its ETD derivatives reporting coverage. It thus provides comprehensive coverage of the specific requirements of EMIR REFIT through a modular, flexible and scalable solution, which continues to cover the requirements of EMIR UK, MiFID II and SFTR.
