Market participants expect T2S to foster post-trade harmonisation. Consequently, the T2S community has launched and/or contributed to several harmonisation initiatives since the start of the project, for instance the agreements concerning the T2S User Requirements Document, message standardisation, process efficiency and work on corporate actions, to mention just a few (more details).
In March 2011 the T2S Advisory Group created the T2S Harmonisation Steering Group. The group is chaired by Yvon Lucas and it comprises senior members of the T2S Programme Board and the Advisory Group. The Harmonisation Steering Group will support the Advisory Group in formulating and monitoring the T2S harmonisation agenda.
In this issue of T2S OnLine, we are pleased to introduce the people in this group and to highlight the key issues on their agenda.
Yvon Lucas, Chairman and member of the T2S Programme Board:Currently, the key priorities on the harmonisation agenda are: T2S messages; the T2S settlement day schedule; corporate actions on flows; legal harmonisation; the settlement discipline regime; and settlement cycles. (Full list)
In addition to the Chairman, the group consists of 12 members representing the T2S community, as well as a rapporteur from the T2S Programme Office and an observer from the European Commission.
