The MoU establishes a framework for ESMA to place reliance on RBI’s regulatory and supervisory activities while safeguarding the European Union’s financial stability. The MoU also demonstrates the importance of cross-border cooperation to facilitate international clearing activities. The MoU was signed by RBI Executive Director Vivek Deep and ESMA Chair Verena Ross. (Brij Raj)
