Recital 5
(5) Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 exempts intragroup transactions from the clearing obligation and the margin requirements. To provide more legal certainty and predictability concerning the framework for intragroup transactions, the regime for equivalence decisions in Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 should be replaced by a simpler framework. Article 3 of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 should therefore be amended to replace the need for an equivalence decision with a list of third countries for which an exemption should not be granted. In addition, Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 should be amended to provide for equivalence decisions only in relation to Article 11 of that Regulation. Since Article 382 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (7) refers to intragroup transactions within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, Article 382 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 should also be amended accordingly.
