Hi Dennis. According to the Chancellor’s statement: “The UK will not be implementing the EU’s new settlement discipline regime, set out in the Central Securities Depositories Regulation, which is due to apply in February 2021.” He recommends that firms continue to apply the existing industry-led framework. No other information has been forthcoming from the Treasury, however given that CSDR has already been implemented into UK legislation (2014 and 2017) it seems likely that the rest will continue to apply – it’s only the buy-in provisions (due to come into force in Feb 2021) that the UK will opt out of. Full details can be found here in the UK Government’s 2018 EU Exit Regulations for CSDR: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2018/1320/pdfs/uksiem_20181320_en.pdf and you can note in Article 7.9 that the CSDR clauses relating to settlement discipline “will not become UK law on exit and, therefore, will not appear in the CSDR as given effect in the UK by this instrument after exit.”
