Corrigendum to EMIR 3 clarified counterparty risk rules for MMFs
26 May 2025A corrigendum to Regulation (EU) 2024/2987, known as EMIR 3, was published in the Official Journal of the European Union. One of the changes EMIR 3 made was to amend the Money Market Funds Regulation (MMF Regulation) by adjusting the rules addressing counterparty risk in financial derivative transactions to take account of whether a transaction is cleared by an EU authorised or recognised CCP. The corrigendum makes a change to those adjusted rules by clarifying that in Article 17 of the MMF Regulation, it is the cash provided, rather than the cash received, by a Money Market Fund (MMF) as part of each reverse repurchase agreement that must not exceed 15% of the assets of the MMF.
