applies from: unchanged

Paragraph 1 restructures ESMA's coordination role from a single descriptive sentence into five lettered points, adding new goals of strengthening coordination in emergency situations under Article 24 and assessing cross-border or financial-stability risks when giving opinions to competent authorities on CCPs' compliance, including recommendations on risk mitigation.

Paragraph 2 now covers draft decisions, reports or other measures rather than only draft decisions, and expands the list of triggering Articles to include Article 15(1) second subparagraph, Article 21, Articles 37 and 41, and Article 20 (except where a decision is urgently required), while both submission provisions now specify that they are submitted to ESMA for its opinion rather than merely before adoption.

The provisions previously numbered as paragraphs 3 and 4, concerning ESMA's opinions and guidelines and the competent authority's response, are not present in the after text shown, which is truncated after paragraph 2.

1.

2. Competent authorities shall submit their draft decisions to ESMA before adopting any act or measure pursuant to Articles 7, 8, 14, 15, 29 to 33, 35, 36 and 54.
Competent authorities may also submit draft decisions to ESMA before adopting any other act or measure in accordance with their duties under Article 22(1).
3. Within 20 working days of receipt of a draft decision submitted in accordance with paragraph 2 in relation to a specific Article ESMA shall provide an opinion on that draft decision to the competent authority where necessary to promote a consistent and coherent application of that Article.
Where the draft decision submitted to ESMA in accordance with paragraph 2 shows a lack of convergence or coherence in the application of this Regulation, ESMA shall issue guidelines or recommendations to promote the necessary consistency or coherence in the application of this Regulation pursuant to Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010.
4. Where ESMA adopts an opinion in accordance with paragraph 3, the competent authority shall give it due consideration and shall inform ESMA of any subsequent action or inaction thereto.

Amended by Regulation (EU) 2019/2099 32019R2099

applies from: unknown (an inserted provision states its own application date only in prose)

A new Article 23a is added, setting out a role for ESMA in coordinating supervisory practices among competent authorities and across colleges, particularly for matters with a cross-border dimension.

It requires competent authorities to submit certain draft decisions to ESMA before adopting acts or measures under specified Articles, allows submission of other draft decisions on a discretionary basis, and sets a 20-working-day period for ESMA to issue an opinion or, where appropriate, guidelines or recommendations.

It also states that where ESMA issues an opinion, the competent authority must give it due consideration, report on subsequent action or inaction, and provide comments to ESMA if it significantly deviates from that opinion.
