Notification according to Art. 23 CSD Regulation

The efforts of OeKB CSD regarding the notification for German bearer bonds are now bearing fruit: 

On September 29th, 2020, the Financial Market Authority (FMA) and the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) granted OeKB CSD their approval for the provision of CSD services for bearer bonds under German law. 

This ensures that OeKB CSD may continue to provide its core and ancillary services under the CSD Regulation for securities, the conditions of which provide for the choice of the law of the Federal Republic of Germany.
