ESMA official translations of guidelines on the submission of periodic information

The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has published a webpage with official translations of its guidelines on the periodic information that benchmark administrators, credit rating agencies (CRAs), data reporting services providers and market transparency infrastructures must submit to ESMA. The guidelines repeal and replace ESMA's previous 2019 guidelines on the submission of periodic information by CRAs, together with its previous 2021 guidelines on periodic information and notification of material changes to be submitted to ESMA by trade repositories. The guidelines have applied since 1 January 2026. They clarify the format and frequency of the different categories of information which ESMA expects to receive in its role as supervisor, as well as harmonising and simplifying periodic reporting by these entities. The related final report was originally published in June 2025.
