Further to the launch of the Clearing and Settlement Working Group (CAS-WG) in the spring (read more here), the Subject Groups have been meeting regularly and have progressed towards building a regulatory risk model to test the impact of new regulations on clearing and settlement infrastructures.

By way of background, we have four Subject Groups:

- The Risk Subject Group
- The Regulation Subject Group
- The Standards Subject Group
Each Subject Group has developed specific frameworks to model the implications of change from the European Market Infrastructures Regulation (EMIR), along with other changes introduced by the FSA, European Commission, the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) BaselCommittee and more.
Our plenary meetings are open for anyone to attend at no charge. Following these meetings, further subject group meetings will take place in January, with the next planned plenary session to take place in March 2013.
