In-person

13.30 – 14.00 Registration and welcome coffee

14.00 – 15.50  Session 1: Tools, timing and scope of resolution authority powers

Possible discussion points

  • How can we ensure that CCPs have sufficient financial resources in the case of a potential recovery or resolution process?
  • Are the tools for recovery and resolution proposed by the European Commission the right ones?
  • How will resolution be different from recovery?
  • What should be used as triggers for early intervention, for entry into recovery or for resolution?
  • What level of flexibility should be allowed in the development of recovery and resolution plans in order to take into account the circumstances of the default and the specificities of the CCP?
  • What should be the additional resolution resources compared to recovery?
  • How can we make sure that there will be sufficient resources available after the end of waterfall arrangements? Should a portion of recovery resources be reserved for resolution?
  • Are the powers given to the resolution authorities according to the Commission’s proposal appropriate and well balanced?
  • According the Commission’s proposal the resolution authority is permitted to exercise its powers before the CCP’s recovery plan has been triggered and exhausted. What will be the impact of this on the likely success of resolution. What will be the impact on existing market incentive structures?
