  • CCP recovery guidance – CPMI and IOSCO have updated their 2014 guidance on recovery for financial market infrastructures to provide clarifications in four areas: (i) operationalisation of recovery plans; (ii) replenishment of financial resources; (iii) non-default related losses; and (iv) transparency with respect to recovery tools and how they would be applied; and
  • CCP resolution guidance – the FSB has finalised guidance which complements the FSB Key Attributes of Effective Resolution Regimes by providing guidance on implementing the Key Attributes in resolution arrangements for CCPs.

The joint reports are:
