1. The issuer, the originator and the sponsor of a structured finance instrument established in the Union shall, on the website set up by ESMA pursuant to paragraph 4, jointly publish information on the credit quality and performance of the underlying assets of the structured finance instrument, the structure of the securitisation transaction, the cash flows and any collateral supporting a securitisation exposure as well as any information that is necessary to conduct comprehensive and well-informed stress tests on the cash flows and collateral values supporting the underlying exposures.
2. The obligation under paragraph 1 to publish information shall not extend to where such publication would breach national or Union law governing the protection of confidentiality of information sources or the processing of personal data.
3. ESMA shall develop draft regulatory technical standards to specify:
(a) the information that the persons referred to in paragraph 1 must publish in order to comply with the obligation resulting from paragraph 1 in accordance with paragraph 2;
(b) the frequency with which the information referred to in point (a) is to be updated;
(c) the presentation of the information referred to in point (a) by means of a standardised disclosure template.
ESMA shall submit those draft regulatory technical standards to the Commission by 21 June 2014.
