COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2017/392

of 11 November 2016

supplementing Regulation (EU) No 909/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to regulatory technical standards on authorisation, supervisory and operational requirements for central securities depositories

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 909/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 July 2014 on improving securities settlement in the European Union and on central securities depositories and amending Directives 98/26/EC and 2014/65/EU and Regulation (EU) No 236/2012 (1), and in particular Article 12(3), Article 17(9), Article 22(10), Article 25(12), Article 55(7), Article 18(4), Article 26(8), Article 29(3), Article 37(4), Article 45(7), Article 46(6), Article 33(5), Article 48(10), Article 49(5), Article 52(3), and Article 53(4) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

The provisions in this Regulation are closely linked, since they all deal with the supervisory requirements applicable to central securities depositories (CSDs). To ensure coherence between these provisions, which should enter into force at the same time, and to facilitate a comprehensive view and easy access by persons that are subject to these provisions, it is desirable to include all the regulatory technical standards concerning the supervisory requirements under Regulation (EU) No 909/2014 in a single Regulation.

 

(2)

In view of the global nature of financial markets and given the commitments undertaken by the Union in this field, due regard should be had to the Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures issued by the Committee on Payment and Settlement Systems and the International Organisation of Securities Commissions (CPSS-IOSCO Principles) in April 2012.

 

(3)

In order to ensure consistent application of rules concerning improving securities settlement in the Union, certain technical terms should be clearly defined.

 

(4)

It is important to ensure appropriate authorisation and supervision of a CSD. As such, a list of the relevant authorities issuing the most relevant Union currencies in which settlement takes place to be involved in the process of authorisation and supervision of a CSD should be defined. This should be based on the share of the currencies that those authorities issue in the total value of settlement instructions against payment settled annually by a CSD and on the share of settlement instructions against payment settled by a CSD in a Union currency compared to the total value of settlement instructions against payment settled in that currency across all CSDs in the Union.

 

(5)

In order to allow competent authorities to perform a thorough assessment, a CSD applying for authorisation should provide information on the structure of its internal controls and the independence of its governing bodies to enable the competent authority to assess whether the corporate governance structure ensures the independence of the CSD and whether that structure and its reporting lines, as well as the mechanisms adopted for managing possible conflicts of interest are adequate.

 

(6)

To enable the competent authority to assess the good reputation and the experience and skills of the CSD's senior management and members of the management body, an applicant CSD should provide all relevant information to perform that assessment.

 

(7)

Information on a CSD's branches and subsidiaries is necessary to enable the competent authority to clearly understand the CSD's organisational structure and evaluate any potential risk to the CSD due to the activity of those branches and...
