5.1 Introduction

Due to a lack of data, regulators and supervisors had difficulty anticipating the risks in the securities financing trans­actions (SFT) during the financial crisis and thereafter.

In 2015, the European Union (EU) adopted the securities financing transactions regulation (SFTR) to increase the transparency of SFTs. SFTR covers three key requirements:

Transaction reporting: Financial and non-financial counterparties must report their SFTs to central databases known as trade repositories.

Disclosure obligation: Information on the use of SFTs is disclosed to investors in the regular reports and pre-investments documents issued by the funds.

Collateral reuse obligation: Transparency on the reuse of collateral is required, such as disclosure of risks and the obligation to acquire prior consent.
