Thank you
EMIR Refit One Month In:
Published: May 29, 2024
We are thrilled to mark the one-month milestone since the successful implementation of EMIR Refit. We extend our sincere congratulations to the industry for navigating through this complex regulatory landscape with determination and resilience. At First Derivative, our team of nearly 100 consultants has been deeply involved across 18 clients, working tirelessly to ensure a smooth transition and compliance with EMIR Refit.
In our conversations with clients, we’ve discovered three areas where challenges and uncertainties persist as firms integrate these new processes into their day-to-day operations and allocate resources effectively.
| Challenges | Description | First Derivative Support / Services |
| Errors and Omissions | Firms must report ‘significant’ Errors and Omissions to NCAs and promptly notify counterparties in delegated reporting setups. Managing these processes poses operational challenges. | Tailored professional services for efficient Errors and Omissions management. |
| UTI Generation | Determining Global Unique Trade Identifiers (UTIs) per trade scenario is complex post-EMIR Refit, impacting transaction matching. Resource-intensive processes require focused attention. | Expert guidance to navigate UTI complexities and ensure seamless transaction matching. |
| Back Reporting | Shifting to reporting live and matured trades under EMIR Refit demands proactive remediation strategies. Back Reporting is resource-intensive but critical for compliance. | Extensive experience and expertise in Back Reporting to optimize resources and prioritize remediation efforts. |
In this evolving regulatory landscape, staying ahead of remediation challenges is paramount. Collaborating with our clients and reg-tech partners, we identify and prioritise issues to maximise the value of remediation efforts and enhance regulatory compliance.
