Trade Repositories
The Trade Repositories (TRs) are licensed companies that centrally collect and maintain the records of derivatives. Once registered, the TR is supervised by ESMA in order to ensure that it complies on an on-going basis with all EMIR requirements, thereby enabling regulators to access to data and details of derivative contracts in order for them to fulfil their respective missions. The companies can choose one of the TRs to which the trades will be reported on a daily basis. One company can use more than one TR for EMIR reporting however this is not cost effective approach.
The following trade repositories have been registered by ESMA:
