TSI Workshop
Transparency & Disclosure in EU Securitisations – Requirements, Experiences and Current Developments
As ECB and ESAs just restated, Transparency and disclosure are written large in securitisation: Since the EU Securitisation Regulation came into force in 2019, securitisation is not only the first financial product to be regulated uniformly across Europe, but also the most transparent.
However, in its review of the Securitisation Regulation last year, the EU Commission made a number of significant findings, which concern, among other things, the transparency rules. The disclosure requirements according to Art. 7 of the Securitisation Regulation are in need of improvement, as both content and form do not meet the requirements of efficient and addressee-oriented information, this applies in particular to the disclosure templates. It is therefore only logical that ESMA, as the competent regulatory authority, has launched a corresponding review.
In the context of the discussion on sustainability regulation and the European Green Bond Standard, stronger transparency requirements are also being discussed - reason for a critical stocktaking and discussion on which goals can be sensibly achieved with which reporting obligations!
