how the ownership structure of the CCP is reflected in incentive structures or decision processes of the CCP;

how requirements on owners under the recovery plan might affect the recovery plan, including where contractual parental or group support agreements form part of the recovery plan, and assessing in particular:

(d)

whether the links of the CCP to any same-group entity are sufficiently assessed to ensure that any risk of contagion that may arise in the event of any group company being subject to financial constraints or being in default is accounted for, and assessing how those links might impact the applicability of the measures in the recovery plan;

(h)

whether the recovery plan is clear and practicable in procedures and action plans, including procedures for decision processes, detailed contact sheets from any person relevant to the recovery plan process, remote access abilities and accessibility to decision makers, and whether the recovery plan has procedures to access key persons both on and off-site;

(i)

whether the recovery plan is effectively included, where required, in the operating rules of the CCP;

(j)

whether the CCP has in place appropriate rules and procedures to test its recovery plan with its clearing members on a regular basis, and where possible, to identify their clients and indirect clients.
