Summary

On October 19, 2023, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) recognized PT Kliring Penjaminan Efek Indonesia (KPEI) as a Tier 1 Central Counterparty (CCP) under the European Markets Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR). This recognition follows the adoption of an equivalence decision by the European Commission regarding the regulatory framework for central counterparties in Indonesia on June 8, 2022. As part of this recognition process, ESMA and the Indonesia Financial Services Authority signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on September 30, 2023, establishing cooperation arrangements for the exchange of information regarding CCPs established in Indonesia and seeking EU recognition under EMIR.

The MoU is part of ESMA’s cooperation arrangements with non-EU authorities whose legal and supervisory framework for CCPs has been deemed equivalent to EMIR. This marks the 25th cooperation arrangement concluded by ESMA with relevant non-EU supervisory authorities from 21 countries across all continents, including Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, South America, and Oceania.

ESMA’s recognition of PT Kliring Penjaminan Efek Indonesia as a Tier 1 CCP demonstrates the Authority’s commitment to promoting stability and integrity in the European financial markets by ensuring that third-country CCPs meet EMIR requirements.
