  16. REGULATION OF CLEARING OPERATIONS

  17. Today’s Regulatory Framework for Clearing Operations • Clearing operations are governed by: - Federal Law No. 39-FZ of April 22, 1996 “On the Securities Market”, which defines clearing and clearing operations only in the securities market; - Resolution of the Federal Commission for the Securities Market No. 32-ps of August 14, 2002, which only defines ordinary, multilateral and centralized clearing in the execution of securities transactions; - Regulations of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation No. 219-P of March 25, 2003 and No. 220-P of February 25, 2003, which govern clearing in the government securities market. • Standards applied to clearing in the securities market are used for clearing in the currency and government securities markets.

  18. Improvement of Clearing Laws in Russia • The central counterparty’s (CCP) legal statusdefining will allow to introduce the CCP in the financial market as an independent infrastructural entity which concludes transactions for clearing purposes without being a trade participantand is rewarded for rendering clearing services. • Determination of the legal status of deposited and blockedfunds (property) of clearing participants for securing their obligations will allow to reduce the risk they litigate the use of the above-mentioned funds by the CCP. • Introduction of separate legal status and usage mode for clearing accounts to prevent them from being used in the bank account mode envisioned by the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, includingunconditional cash debiting upon the clearing participant’s request. The clearing institution needs to have the right to withhold the clearing participant’s funds until its obligations are fully fulfilled.

  19. Improvement of Clearing Laws in Russia (contd) • Amendment to the Laws “On Joint-Stock Companies” and “On Limited Liability Companies” stating that the standard for major and related-party transactions will not apply to transactions concluded in the course of organized trade, which will reduce the risk of litigation of the above-mentioned transactions by market participants, including transactions with the CCP. • Establishing the possibility and procedure for using assets of the Risk Covering Fund and guarantee fundsin full volume. • Introduction ofthe procedure for the fulfillment of obligations by the clearing participant in case of his bankruptcy or license withdrawal will allow to terminate the obligations of such participant only after their fulfillment. • Establishing legal grounds and procedures for the cancellation of clearing service agreement will allow to cancel such agreement by mutual consent between the parties rather than at any time as provided for by Chapter 39 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.

  20. Improvement of Clearing Laws in Russia (contd) • Establishment by law of the procedure and new way for termination of obligations in the course of clearing will allow a clearing institutionto define and terminate the obligations of clearing participants. None of the ways for termination of obligations currently envisioned by the Civil Code of the Russian Federation allows the clearing institution which is not a party in the transaction to terminate the clearing participant’s obligations. This does not allow to conduct ordinary or multilateral clearing operations. Clearing with the CCP is not envisioned by laws of the Russian Federation. Centralized clearing operations can only be performed using the assignment of rightswhat requires the consent from the other party in the transaction. The clearing centre has to track the rights and obligations of the party so as not to become the all-in-one debtor and creditor in the result of assignment.
