Assessment of significance for the purpose of the Error and Omission Notifications
Question
(a) How should counterparties conduct the significance assessment referred to in Articles 9(1)(a) and 9(1)(c) of Commission Delegation Regulation (EU) 2022/1860 (ITS on reporting under EMIR REFIT)?
More specifically, how should the “NumOfAffReports” and the “Average Monthly Number of Submissions” referred to in the formula for significance in Paragraph 392 of the Guidelines on reporting under EMIR REFIT be calculated?
(b) Paragraph 392 of the Guidelines for reporting under EMIR REFIT states that the actual number of reports should be based on the previous 12 months. In the context of EMIR REFIT being applicable as of 29 April 2024, should data from before 29 April 2024 be included in the 12-month calculation?
