Single Collateral Management Rulebook for Europe (SCoRE)

In order to address this fragmentation, the Eurosystem’s Advisory Group on Market Infrastructures for Securities and Collateral (AMI-SeCo) is working towards developing a Single Collateral Management Rulebook for Europe (SCoRE), which defines common rules for managing collateral.

Harmonised collateral management processes

Harmonised collateral management processes

The harmonised collateral management processes laid down in SCoRE will ultimately make it easier for:

  • market participants to move their securities and collateral safely and efficiently between EU countries, without friction or restrictions;
  • investors to buy securities in any EU country and use them as collateral in the same or any other EU country;
  • banks to move collateral and securities quickly to where they are needed.

It will also lead to:

  • increased efficiency, by enabling collateral management across Europe from a single account using the same procedures;
  • lower costs, as a single rulebook will allow market participants to implement a single set of procedures;
  • interoperability, resulting from common messaging based on a common set of data across financial market infrastructures;
  • lower risk in managing securities and collateral as a result of the standardisation of processes;
  • a level playing field for all market participants across Europe;
  • increased reach beyond domestic markets.
