## EXPLANATORY NOTE 

These Regulations are made in exercise of the powers in section 8(1) of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c. 16) in order to address failures of retained EU law to operate effectively, and other deficiencies arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union (and in particular, the deficiencies under paragraphs (a) and (g) of section 8(2) of that Act). 

These Regulations amend Articles 493(1) and 498 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012, which provide for an exemption for Commodities Dealers from certain provisions of that Regulation. They also revoke previous EU Exit amendments to Articles 493 and 498 which are no longer appropriate as a result of the amendments made before IP Completion day to those provisions as a result of the Corrigendum to Regulation (EU) 2019/2033 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 November 2019 on the prudential requirements of investment firms and amending Regulations (EU) No 1093/2010, (EU) No 575/2013, (EU) No 600/2014 and (EU) No 806/2014 (OJ 2.12.2020, L 405/79). 

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.
