It is a mandatory requirement for all counterparts to register for an LEI and to maintain that LEI throughout the life of the reporting service if they wish to use the HSBC Delegated Reporting Service.
Please read and retain the HSBC EMIR Delegated Reporting Service Procedures Manual (PDF, 1MB) to fully understand how the HSBC EMIR Delegated Reporting Service operates and how it can support you with your reporting requirements.
If you do not have DTCC access, you are recommended to register with DTCC.
To register with DTCC, please visit their Europe website, UK website, client centre or contact their onboarding service at gtr-onboarding@dtcc.com.
You are advised to have this access to approve HSBC to submit trade reports on your behalf, and to ensure the completeness and accuracy of submitted Reports on your behalf.
