Question

Where information about the same ABCP transaction is being reported several times because more than one ABCP programme is funding that ABCP transaction, is it necessary for the ABCP transaction unique identifiers (IVAL2; IVAN2; IVAR1) to be identical across the reports provided for the different ABCP programmes?

Answer

[ESMA 33-128-563 Securitisation Q&A, Q&A 5.1.8.d] Yes, all the unique identifiers must be identical across reports, where reports for several ABCP programmes contain information about the same ABCP transaction. The unique ABCP transaction identifier (IVAL2; IVAN2; IVAR1) must be developed in accordance with Article 11(2) of the RTS on disclosure. Where there is more than one “reporting entity” for an ABCP transaction because that transaction is funded by more than one ABCP programme, the LEI of any one of the reporting entities can be used to generate the unique identifier of that ABCP transaction.
