Giuseppe Insalaco

Senior Market Infrastructure Advisor
Central Bank of Ireland

Giuseppe comes from a long career in the Asset Management industry working as FX and derivatives trader, treasurer, head of multi-asset trading and execution desks, and COO. He joined the Central Bank of Ireland in 2011, after an experience as founder in a start-up company to establish a pan-European Multilateral Trading Facility for certificates of deposit and commercial paper for retail and institutional clients: a very deliberate case of shadow banking outfit.

Giuseppe is responsible for Trading and Market Infrastructure within the Markets Policy Division, which covers clearing, settlement, and trading venues. He also represents the Central Bank in ESMA Post Trade Standing Committee, where he was heavily involved in the drafting of EMIR technical standards, ESAs Task Force on Financial Infrastructure, drafting technical standards for non-centrally-cleared derivatives under EMIR, OTC Regulatory Forum, IOSCO Standing Committee 2 on secondary markets, and is technical advisor to the Department of Finance for the CSD Regulation and Shadow Banking dossiers for the 2013 Irish Presidency of the European Council.
