The Securitisation (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 2024 were published on legislation.gov.uk, alongside an explanatory memorandum. At present, U.K. investors in U.K. - or EU-origin Simple, Transparent, and Standardised securitizations can benefit from preferential prudential treatment, due to a temporary arrangement. The time by which EU STS securitizations can enter the temporary arrangement was set to expire on December 31, 2024. The Regulations extend the time by which such EU-origin STS securitizations can enter the temporary arrangement to June 30, 2026. The U.K. government is aiming to provide continuity and certainty to investors, until a non-time-limited assessment is undertaken.
