European Union
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/1301 of 31 March 2022 amending the regulatory technical standards laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1226 as regards the information to be provided in accordance with the STS notification requirements for on-balance-sheet synthetic securitisations THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 December 2017 laying down a general framework for securitisation and creating a specific framework for simple, transparent and standardised securitisation, and amending Directives 2009/65/EC, 2009/138/EC and 2011/61/EU and Regulations (EC) No 1060/2009 and (EU) No 648/2012 OJ L 347 28.12.2017, p. 35. , and in particular Article 27(6), third subparagraph thereof, Whereas: (1) Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1226 Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1226 of 12 November 2019 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 of the European Parliament and of the Council and laying down regulatory technical standards specifying the information to be provided in accordance with the STS notification requirements (OJ L 289, 3.9.2020, p. 285). specifies the information that securitisation parties have to provide to the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) in accordance with the simple, transparent and standardised (STS) notification requirements for traditional true sale securitisations laid down in Articles 19 to 22 and Articles 23 to 26 of Regulation (EU) 2017/2402. (2) Regulation (EU) 2021/557 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EU) 2021/557 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 31 March 2021 amending Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 laying down a general framework for securitisation and creating a specific framework for simple, transparent and standardised securitisation to help the recovery from the COVID-19 crisis (OJ L 116, 6.4.2021, p. 1). amended Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 by extending the STS securitisation framework to on-balance-sheet synthetic securitisations. Accordingly, it is necessary to specify the information that originators have to submit to ESMA to comply with the STS notification requirements for on-balance-sheet synthetic securitisations. (3) To provide investors, potential investors and competent authorities with a comparative overview of all types of STS securitisations, it is appropriate to ensure consistency across all the STS notifications. Therefore, the information that originators must submit regarding compliance with the STS requirements set out in Articles 26b to 26e of Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 should follow similar standards and level of detail as those set forth in Annexes I, II and III to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1226. In particular, a simple confirmation of compliance is sufficient for some criteria, while others require additional information. It is therefore necessary to distinguish between those STS criteria for which a simple confirmation is sufficient and those for which a concise explanation or a detailed explanation is necessary.
(4) On-balance-sheet synthetic securitisations where no prospectus must be drawn up in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017 on the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to trading on a regulated market, and repealing Directive 2003/71/EC (OJ L 168, 30.6.2017, p. 12). allow parties to enter into securitisation transactions without disclosing sensitive commercial information. It is therefore appropriate to restrict the information to be published of the STS notifications of such securitisations to non-sensitive commercial information. (5) To facilitate access to information relevant to the STS requirements, originators should be allowed to refer to any relevant prospectus drawn up for an on-balance-sheet synthetic securitisation in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 or other relevant underlying documentation as referred to in Article 7(1), point (b) of Regulation (EU) 2017/2402. Additionally, originators should be allowed to refer to any other document relating to the investors and originators, the credit protection agreement, the third-party verification agent and, where available, the transaction documentation backing the credit linked notes. (6) In order to improve the transparency and consistency of information between interrelated fields and to clarify specific features of certain securitisations, including master trust securitisations, it is necessary to clarify the information to be reported under the columns Field name and Content to be reported for certain fields in Annexes I, II and III to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1226. (7) Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1226 should therefore be amended accordingly. (8) This Regulation is based on the draft regulatory technical standards submitted to the Commission by ESMA. (9) ESMA has conducted open public consultations on the draft regulatory technical standards on which this Regulation is based, analysed the potential related costs and benefits and requested the advice of the Securities and Markets Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Securities and Markets Authority), amending Decision No 716/2009/EC and repealing Commission Decision 2009/77/EC (OJ L 331 15.12.2010, p. 84). , HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
