Compliance Services for European Market Infrastructure
Market infrastructure carries the obligations everyone else depends on. ABM Global Compliance supports clearing, settlement, and post-trade businesses across the EU with EMIR and CSDR compliance, operational resilience frameworks, reporting obligations, and governance, keeping the plumbing of European markets aligned with the regulators who watch it closely at every stage.

Infrastructure Rules Written in Detail
Post-trade infrastructure operates under frameworks with little tolerance for interpretation. EMIR governs clearing obligations, risk mitigation, and trade reporting with ongoing refits changing data standards. CSDR disciplines settlement through mandatory buy-in frameworks, penalty regimes, and authorisation requirements for CSDs. Both regimes carry reporting obligations where data quality is examined systematically.
DORA adds operational resilience requirements that bite hardest on infrastructure: ICT risk management, incident reporting on tight deadlines, resilience testing, and third-party oversight. Because infrastructure failures cascade across markets, supervisors apply expectations with particular intensity, and participants connecting to infrastructure inherit compliance obligations of their own that need equally careful handling.

Market Infrastructure Questions Answered
What does EMIR require from firms?
Clearing obligations for standardised derivatives, risk mitigation for uncleared trades, margin requirements, and trade your reporting to repositories with evolving data standards.
What is CSDR settlement discipline?
A regime addressing settlement failures through cash penalties, reporting, and buy-in provisions, requiring firms to monitor, manage, and remediate their fail rates.
How does DORA affect infrastructure providers?
DORA demands ICT risk frameworks, major incident reporting within tight deadlines, resilience testing, and third-party oversight, applied intensively to systemically important infrastructure.
Can you fix trade reporting data issues?
Yes. We diagnose reporting errors, manage corrections and back-reporting, strengthen data controls, and handle regulator communication throughout the remediation at every stage.
Do participants have infrastructure compliance obligations?
Yes. Clearing members, settlement participants, and repository users carry their own EMIR and CSDR duties, which we help firms map and meet.
