What timestamp to use for Allocations?

ESMA provided clarification on which timestamp to use for allocations.

As per the definition of 'execution timestamp' in the RTS - "Date and time a transaction was originally executed, resulting in the generation of a new UTI...", since the execution timestamp should be the time when the UTI was created, it should therefore be based on the allocation of the trade.
