Side by side

Compare organizations

Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.

Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

This would reduce the impact of double taxation and would be a significant improvement on the current situation where several procedures are still based on paper documents, resulting in the need to apply for different originals, with long lead times and inconsistent…

Settlement discipline, cross-border provision of services, supervisory cooperation, provision of banking-type ancillary services and requirements for third-country central securities depositories

Association of Global Custodians · filed 26 May 2022 · source

The Association of Global Custodians (AGC) welcomes the European Commission’s Proposal for changes to CSDR. The Commission’s Proposal introduces some important and necessary changes - but it can still be improved in some areas.

In terms of entities subject to the settlement penalties, as we elaborated in our Response to the Commissions’ consultation on a Possible Review of the CSDR (run between December 2020 and February 2021), we continue to suggest the removal of CCPs’ responsibility on the collection and distribution of penalties to clearing members affected by the settlement fails, moving this responsibility on CSDs for both cleared…
