The Pension Fund Clearing Obligation Exemption (Amendment) Regulations 2025
These Regulations amend the transitional provision in Article 89(1) of Regulation (EU) 648/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2012 on OTC derivatives, central counterparties and trade repositories (“UK EMIR”) which exempt certain pension fund derivative contracts from the clearing obligation provided for in Article 4 of UK EMIR. They remove the time limit that previously applied to this exemption.
