ESAs' report on the implementation and functioning of the securitisation regulation

May 17, 2021--The Joint Committee of the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs - European Banking Authority, European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority, and European Securities and Markets Authority) published today its analysis of the implementation and the functioning of the EU Securitisation Regulation (SECR), including recommendations on how to address initial inconsistencies and challenges, which may affect the overall efficiency of the current securitisation regime.

The Report is meant to provide guidance to the European Commission in the context of its review of the functioning of the SECR. It also provides initial inputs to the ongoing discussion on the efficiency of the securitisation framework given the role that securitisation could play in the recovery post the Covid-19 pandemic.

ECB-Meeting of 21-22 April 2021-Account of the monetary policy meeting of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank held in Frankfurt am Main on Wednesday and Thursday, 21-22 April 2021

May 13, 2021--1. Review of financial, economic and monetary developments and policy options Financial market developments
Ms Schnabel reviewed the financial market developments since the Governing Council's previous monetary policy meeting on 10-11 March 2021.
Euro area government bond yields had decoupled from US Treasury yields – which had continued to increase in the course of March 2021 before retreating somewhat in April-and had remained broadly unchanged since late February 2021.

In part, this reflected the renewed rise in coronavirus (COVID-19) infections and the tightening of lockdowns in the euro area, which had affected near-term growth expectations. However, it also reflected the impact of the Governing Council’s monetary policy decisions in March and the preceding communication, convincing markets of the ECB’s determination to maintain favourable financing conditions. The ECB's recent measures had been effective in shielding euro area long-term rates from spillovers, with regard to both the risk-free yield curve and sovereign spreads.

Germany to switch 9bn euro in federal pension money to EU climate index

May 6, 2021--Some €9bn of German federal pension assets are due to be reallocated to equity indices aligned with the EU Climate Transition Benchmark (CTB) as part of the government's sustainable finance strategy, it was announced yesterday.
S&P Dow Jones Indices said it had been chosen by the government to develop the index, which would be used for four federal civil service funds.

The EU CTB is one of two types of climate benchmarks for which the EU has developed minimum standards. The other is the EU Paris-Aligned Benchmark (PAB).

The CTB requires a lower baseline reduction of greenhouse gas intensity relative to the market-weighted investable universe than the PAB. Another difference is that a CTB-compliant benchmark does not have to exclude fossil fuels based on certain thresholds.
