In March 2017, IOSCO approved the Enhanced Multilateral Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Consultation and Cooperation and the Exchange of Information (EMMOU), which is built upon the current MMOU.
The IOSCO EMMOU provides IOSCO members who are signatories with additional tools to meet the challenges of combating financial misconduct in an increasingly complex, interconnected and technology-driven global financial market.
Under the EMMOU’s framework for mutual assistance and exchange of information, securities regulators can obtain and share audit working papers, telephone and internet records, compel attendance at interviews and provide guidance on freezing of assets.
The MMOU will remain in effect as long as any signatory wishes to use it. IOSCO’s objective is for all MMOU signatories to eventually migrate to the EMMOU.
Signatories to the IOSCO EMMOU are listed below.
Appendix A.1 of the EMMOU listed signatories that are able to obtain and share telephone and internet records, and audit working papers, compel attendance at interviews and provide guidance on freezing of assets.
Appendix A.2 of the EMMOU listed signatories that are able to obtain and share audit working papers, compel attendance at interviews and provide guidance on freezing of assets.
