BIS – Principles for financial market infrastructures – consultative report

Principles for financial market infrastructures – consultative report, Bank for International Settlements, CPSS Publications No 94, March 2011

  • “The report Principles for financial market infrastructures contains new and more demanding international standards for payment, clearing and settlement systems. Issued for public consultation by the CPSS and the Technical Committee of the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO), the new standards (called “principles”) are designed to ensure that the essential infrastructure supporting global financial markets is even more robust and thus even better placed to withstand financial shocks than at present. The report contains a single, comprehensive set of 24 principles designed to apply to all systemically important payment systems, central securities depositories, securities settlement systems, central counterparties and trade repositories (collectively “financial market infrastructures” or “FMIs”). These FMIs collectively record, clear and settle transactions in financial markets.
