European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR)
Published on 04 Aug 2015
The European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) imposes requirements related to derivatives entered into by financial businesses, including ordinary interest rate and currency swaps commonly used by real estate funds. Such requirements can include derivatives being entered into through a central counterparty and being subject to cash collateral posting, and in all cases derivatives must be reported to regulators. Although INREV supports the goal of improving transparency and stability on the OTC markets, it opposes overly costly and burdensome regulations being applied to real estate funds, which typically use interest rate and currency swaps simply to manage risk.

Shadow Banking - INREV response to EBA shadow banking consultation paper
Published on 18 Jun 2015
In a response to the EBA’s consultation paper on Shadow Banking filed on 18 June, INREV argued against the proposal to include all AIFs in the definition of shadow banking.
Building on work carried out by the Financial Stability Board, the European Banking Authority (EBA) is creating a set of policy recommendations and proposes to define shadow banks as entities which present sufficient unknown risks that it is justifiable to restrict the exposure of mainstream banks to that part of the financial system. These include activities carried out by many in the asset management industry, including real estate investment funds. The EBA’s consultation paper suggests that all AIFs should be treated as shadow banking entities.
