EMIR 3—ESMA publishes final report specifying the conditions of the active account requirement

The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has published its final report setting out draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) concerning the active account requirement (AAR) under the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EU) 2024/2987 (EMIR 3). Based on feedback received during the public consultation, ESMA has adjusted the operational conditions and stress-testing requirements associated with the AAR. The report outlines simplified reporting requirements, clarifies the representativeness obligation, and provides further detail on the operational conditions. ESMA will submit the report and draft RTS to the European Commission, which has a three-month period for endorsement. The RTS will then be subject to review by the European Parliament and the Council of the EU.

EU agrees to shorten securities settlement cycle to T+1 under CSDR amendment

The Council of the EU and the European Parliament have provisionally agreed to amend the EU Central Securities Depositories Regulation (CSDR) (Regulation (EU) 909/2014) to shorten the standard settlement cycle for securities transactions executed on EU trading venues, from two business days (T+2) to one business day after the trade date (T+1). The change, proposed by the European Commission on 12 February 2025, aims to improve post-trade efficiency, align EU practices with global markets, and enhance the competitiveness of EU capital markets. An exemption will apply to certain securities financing transactions (SFTs), provided they are documented as single transactions comprising two linked operations. The new rules are expected to be formally adopted and will apply from 11 October 2027.

IEA launches global Energy and AI Observatory

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has launched a new Energy and AI Observatory to monitor and analyse the growing interconnections between artificial intelligence (AI) and the energy sector, which is noted to be a first-of-its-kind platform. The Observatory provides up-to-date data on electricity demand from data centres and showcases how AI is being used to optimise energy systems. Its release follows the IEA’s April 2025 special report on Energy and AI, which projected that electricity demand from AI-optimised data centres could more than quadruple by 2030. The Observatory was first announced at the AI Action Summit in February 2025 by IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol.
