(10)The financial market in which CCPs authorised in the UAE carry out their clearing activities is significantly smaller than that in which CCPs established in the Union are active. Over the past 3 years, the total value of derivative transactions cleared in the UAE represented less than 1 % of the total value of derivative transactions cleared in the Union. Therefore, participation in CCPs established in the UAE exposes clearing members and trading venues established in the Union to significantly lower risks than their participation in CCPs authorised in the Union.
