Under EMIR, the colleges that supervise central counterparties (CCPs) must include the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the central banks of issue of the currency used by the CCP, and any competent EU national authority with a direct interest in the smooth operation of the CCP (for example, the authorities that supervise the main participating banks).

In 2023, LCH SA's College was made up of 19 national authorities from 11 jurisdictions. Colleges ensure the exchange of information between authorities. They also have the power to validate important decisions made by CCPs that could have cross-border effects.
