Article 15
Annual supervisory fee for 2014 for trade repositories registered in 2013
1.
Trade repositories registered in 2013 shall be charged an annual supervisory fee for 2014 calculated according to Article 7 on the basis of their applicable turnover during the period from 1 January 2014 to 30 June 2014, as set out in paragraph 2 of this Article.
2.
For the purposes of calculating supervisory fees for 2014 for trade repositories registered in 2013 pursuant to Article 7, the applicable turnover of a trade repository shall be the sum of one third of each of the following:
(a)
the revenues generated from the core functions of centrally collecting and maintaining records of derivatives of the trade repository during the period from 1 January 2014 to 30 June 2014, divided by the total revenues generated from the core functions of centrally collecting and maintaining records of derivatives of all registered trade repositories during the period from 1 January 2014 to 30 June 2014;
(b)
the number of trades reported to the trade repository during the period from 1 January 2014 to 30 June 2014, divided by the total number of trades reported to all registered trade repositories during the period from 1 January 2014 to 30 June 2014;
(c)
the number of recorded outstanding trades on 30 June 2014, divided by the total number of recorded outstanding trades on 30 June 2014 in all registered trade repositories.
3.
The annual supervisory fee for 2014 for trade repositories registered in 2013 shall be paid in two instalments.
The first instalment shall be due on 28 February 2014 and shall correspond to the registration fee paid by the trade repository in 2013 pursuant to Article 6.
The second instalment shall be due on 31 August. The amount of the second instalment shall be the annual supervisory fee calculated according to paragraphs 1 and 2 reduced by the amount of the first instalment.
Where the amount paid by a trade repository in the first instalment is higher than the annual supervisory fee calculated according to paragraphs 1 and 2, ESMA shall reimburse the trade repository the difference between the amount paid in the first instalment and the annual supervisory fee calculated according to paragraphs 1 and 2.
4.
ESMA shall send the invoices for the instalments of the annual supervisory fee for 2014 to the trade repositories registered in 2013 at least 30 days before the payment date.
5.
When the audited accounts for 2014 become available, trade repositories registered in 2013 shall report to ESMA any change in the indicators referred to in points (a), (b) or (c) of paragraph 2 used for the calculation of the applicable turnover according to paragraph 2, stemming from the difference between the final data and the provisional data used for the calculation.
Trade repositories will be charged the difference between the annual supervisory fee for 2014 actually paid and the annual supervisory fee for 2014 to be paid as a consequence of any change to the indicators referred to in points (a), (b) or (c) of paragraph 2 used for the calculation of the applicable turnover according to paragraph 2.
ESMA shall send the invoice for any additional payment to be made by a trade repository as a consequence of a change in any of the indicators referred to in points (a), (b) or (c) of paragraph 2 used for the calculation of the applicable turnover according to paragraph 2, at least 30 days before the respective payment date.
