in force 2026-01-17 MODIFIED+295 −83§
Amended by Regulation (EU) 2023/2845 32023R2845
applies from: unchanged
Point (c) now refers to maintaining sufficient qualifying liquid resources rather than merely having sufficient liquid resources, and it changes the reference stress scenario from the default of at least one participant to the default of at least two participants, while also dropping the phrase 'but not limited to' before the listed scenario.
Point (d) now specifies 'each relevant currency' instead of 'each currency', and point (e) now conditions the selection of creditworthy financial institutions on the use of prearranged and highly reliable funding arrangements, committed lines of credit or similar arrangements, rather than simply on the use of prearranged funding arrangements.
Point (i) now describes the arrangements as ensuring the ability to convert collateral from a defaulting client into cash in a timely fashion, rather than to liquidate that collateral, and adds a requirement that, where non-committed arrangements are used, any associated potential risks have been identified and mitigated.
