The definition of OTC derivatives in Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 should therefore be amended in order to ensure that the same type of derivatives contracts are identified as either OTC derivatives or exchange-traded derivatives irrespective of whether those contracts are traded in the Union or in third-country markets.
Ba cheart, dá bhrí sin, an sainmhíniú ar dhíorthaigh TAC i Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 648/2012 a leasú d’fhonn a áirithiú go ndéantar an cineál céanna conarthaí díorthacha a shainaithint mar dhíorthaigh TAC nó díorthaigh arna dtrádáil ar mhalartán, bíodh na conarthaí sin á dtrádáil san Aontas nó ar mhargaí tríú tíortha.
