CSDR Reporting
The Central Securities Depository Regulation (CSDR) establishes certain reporting obligations for CSDs and settlement internalisers designed to improve settlement efficiency, transparency, and supervisory oversight across the EU.
CSDR aims to enhance the safety and efficiency of settlement, strengthen investor protection, and contribute to the stability of the financial system.
As part of the settlement discipline regime, Article 7 of CSDR mandates the reporting of settlement fails and efficiency indicators by Central Securities Depositories (CSDs) to their national competent authority (NCA) with the objective to increase settlement efficiency and reduce risks in post-trade markets.
Article 9 of CSDR requires settlement internalisers to report to the NCAs the aggregated volumes and values of all securities transactions that they settle outside securities settlement systems.
Both CSD and internalised settlement reports are transmitted by NCAs to ESMA, which consolidates the information in central databases to support effective supervision and risk monitoring across the EU.
