GUIDE & CHECKLIST

The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation GLOBAL TRADE REPOSITORY (GTR) BREXIT ACTIVITY GUIDE & CHECKLIST

As you determine your post-Brexit reporting obligations, DTCC is committed to supporting you every step of the way whether you need reporting in EU27, UK or in both jurisdictions.

In this regard, we are delighted that on Friday 1st March the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) granted authorization for DTCC Data Repository (Ireland) Plc (or “DDRIE,” our EU27 trade repository) as the first new trade repository (TR) to be successfully registered by ESMA to operate within the EU27 post-Brexit.

DDRIE will not be operationally activated until Brexit takes effect, i.e. 11 p.m. London time (British Summer Time) / 12 midnight Brussels time (Central Europe Summer Time) on the 12th April. Clients must therefore continue to send all ESMA reportable trades to DTCC Derivatives Repository Plc, “DDRL,” until 11 p.m. London time (British Summer Time) / 12 midnight Brussels time (Central Europe Summer Time) on the 12th April. ESMA authorization of DDRL will be withdrawn at this point and Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) authorization for DDRL to operate in the UK will come into effect. Post-Brexit, ESMA reportable trades must be reported to DDRIE, FCA reportable trades to DDRL.

In the event Brexit is delayed, DDRL will remain the DTCC’s only operationally active ESMA authorized TR until further notice.

The following activity guide is intended to help clients better understand the data migration processes and timelines in the weeks up to and including the Brexit weekend and effectively provides a checklist for all activities.
