On May 8, 2015, the Bank of England published a consolidated
version of its rules for Recognized Clearing Houses. RCHs are
regulated by the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and are
subject to the FSMA 2000 (Recognition Requirements) Regulations
2001, though different recognition requirements will apply under

rules.
