The EBA publishes its final report amending the RTS on prudential requirements for central securities depositories (CSDs) and designated credit institutions offering banking-type ancillary services. The changes respond to the CSDR Refit, which allows banking CSDs to provide such services to other CSDs.
Key points
- Aim: improve non-banking CSDs' access to foreign currency and settlement efficiency in Europe.
- Changes focus on the impact on the banking CSD's risk profile and on notifications to supervisors, to avoid systemic risk from greater interconnectedness.
- References to the CRR and the amended CSDR are updated.
Who is affected
Central securities depositories with a banking licence, designated credit institutions and CSDs using their services.
Deadlines
Submitted to the Commission for endorsement and subsequent publication in the Official Journal.
Plain-language version
Central securities depositories are the firms that record who owns shares and bonds. The EBA, the EU authority that sets the rules for banks, has finalised binding technical standards (RTS) so that those with a banking licence can offer banking services, such as access to foreign currencies, to other depositories without creating system-wide risks. The European Commission still has to approve them.
