(7)First, the legal and supervisory arrangements of a third country must ensure that CCPs in that third country comply with legally binding requirements which are equivalent to the requirements laid down in Title IV of Regulation (EU) No 648/2012. Until 29 March 2019, Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 is directly applicable in the United Kingdom and UK CCPs authorised under Article 14 of that Regulation therefore must comply with its requirements.
