EC Regulation and Guideline on Statistics on Holdings of Securities
EC published the Regulation (EU) 2018/318 and Guideline (EU) 2018/323 of ECB on the statistics on holdings of securities. Regulation (EU) 2018/318 shall enter into force on October 01, 2018 while Guideline (EU) 2018/323 shall take effect on the day of its notification to the national central banks of the member states whose currency is the euro. The Eurosystem central banks shall comply with guideline from October 01, 2018.
Regulation (EU) 2018/318 (ECB/2018/7) amends Regulation (EU) No 1011/2012 (ECB/2012/24) to clarify the scope of the group data reporting agents, which can be identified as part of the actual reporting population by the Governing Council for the purpose of that Regulation and to incorporate the possibility that group data pursuant to Article 3a of Regulation (EU) No 1011/2012 (ECB/2012/24) can be directly reported to ECB. Guideline (EU) 2018/323 of ECB (ECB/2018/8) amends Guideline ECB/2013/7, which needs to be amended to take account of these changes since it sets out the procedures that must be followed by the national central banks when reporting to ECB under Regulation (EU) No 1011/2012 (ECB/2012/24). Amendments to Guideline ECB/2013/7 include Paragraph 3 being added in Article 3a and Article 4b. Annex II has been replaced by the Annex to the guideline.
