Explanation, written by a model and checked against the cited text

A new Article 23a is added, setting out that the Chapter's rules on statutory replacement of a benchmark apply to contracts or financial instruments under Directive 2014/65/EU that reference a benchmark and are subject to the law of a Member State, and to contracts referencing a benchmark where all parties are established in the Union and the contract is subject to a third-country law that does not provide for an orderly wind-down of the benchmark.
