Recital 13

(13)The legal and supervisory arrangements of the USA applicable to DCOs should therefore be deemed equivalent provided that, according to the internal rules and procedures of DCOs that are authorised as SIDCOs and opt-in DCOs, they ensure that DCOs comply with the following requirements. Those requirements are: (1) for non-OTC derivative contracts executed on regulated markets, a liquidation period of two days with respect to the initial margin applied to clearing members' proprietary positions; (2) for all derivative contracts, measures to limit procyclicality which deliver stable and conservative margins, and are equivalent to at least one of the options as laid down in Title IV of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012; and (3) a sufficient pre-funded available financial resources enabling the DCO to withstand the default of at least the two clearing members to which it has the largest exposures under extreme but plausible market conditions taking account of additional risks to which those DCOs are exposed arising from the simultaneous failure of entities in the group of defaulting clearing members.
