Mandatory buy-ins (MBIs) have become a controversial topic ever since they were proposed in the latest Central Securities Depositories Regulation (CSDR) refit. In response to the uproar, the European Commission has held off on its implementation – but that doesn’t change the potential of it happening hanging like a cloud over the industry. Hear about the situation as it currently stands straight from the source at the PostTrade 360° Nordic 2024 conference in the session helmed by Gilles Hervé of the European Commission. Get your free tickets now.

Equally controversial in the refit of the decade-old CSDR is the proposal to introduce progressive penalties for settlement fails. The European Commission has stated that whether MBIs ultimately get implemented or not will hinge on the effectiveness of the penalty mechanism.    

What is the commission’s perspective on the state of the CSDR now and how likely are MBIs to become reality? Get a closer look at the picture in the session titled “What’s up next in the European Commission’s campaign for settlement discipline”.
