1787 charsEuropean Securities and Markets Authority Launches Consultation on Central Securities Depository Regulation Guidelines Amendments
On May 26, 2026, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) launched a consultation on amendments to its Guidelines on standardised procedures and messaging protocols under the Central Securities Depository Regulation (CSDR). The consultation period runs until July 7, 2026.
The consultation paper addresses standardised procedures and messaging protocols applicable to central securities depositories (CSDs) and their participants. ESMA is seeking feedback from investment firms, credit institutions, their professional clients, CSDs, and CSD participants on proposed amendments to these guidelines. The consultation invites comments on all matters covered in the paper, with particular focus on specific questions detailed in Annex I of the consultation document.
ESMA emphasises that responses should directly address the stated questions, clearly identify which question is being addressed, provide clear rationale for comments, and describe any alternative approaches ESMA should consider. All contributions must be submitted online using the provided response form in docx format. Following the close of the consultation, ESMA will publish all received contributions unless respondents explicitly request confidentiality. Respondents should clearly and prominently indicate any sections they do not wish to be publicly disclosed; standard confidentiality statements in email messages will not be treated as requests for non-disclosure. Personal data contained in submissions will be published as submitted unless respondents choose not to have their response published on the ESMA website.
Stakeholders must submit responses by July 7, 2026, through ESMA's online consultation portal. The consultation paper and reply form are available for download on ESMA's website.
