Recital 11

(11)Similar to the requirements laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/2251, under the margin rules of Japan, all financial institutions which aggregate notional amounts of non-cleared OTC derivatives, non-cleared OTC Commodity derivatives, physically-settled foreign exchange (‘FX’) forwards and FX swaps of a consolidated group, excluding intragroup transactions, for the months March, April and May one year before the year in which the calculation exceeds JPY 1,1 trillion must exchange details of the initial margin. The margin rules of Japan also provide for a combined minimum transfer amount of initial and variation margins of JPY 70 million, whereas the threshold in Article 25 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/2251 is EUR 500 000. Taking into account the marginal difference in the value of those currencies, those amounts should be considered equivalent.
