applies from: unchanged

Paragraph 3 previously set out detailed security mechanism and resource/back-up requirements for ARMs, but now instead states that an ARM shall comply with the network and information system security requirements set out in Regulation (EU) 2022/2554.

Correspondingly, the list of paragraphs referenced in paragraph 5(b) as containing the concrete organisational requirements for regulatory technical standards was changed from paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 to paragraphs 2 and 4, dropping the reference to paragraph 3.

Amended by Regulation (EU) 2019/2175 32019R2175 · Regulation (EU) 2022/858 32022R0858

applies from: unknown (an inserted provision states its own application date only in prose)

Sources disagree — the text comparison found this change; the EU's own amendment metadata does not list it. Both are shown; neither is overruled.

This is a newly added article setting out organisational requirements for ARMs, covering timely reporting of information required under Article 26, arrangements to prevent conflicts of interest, security and confidentiality safeguards, and systems for detecting and correcting errors or omissions in transaction reports.

It also directs ESMA to develop draft regulatory technical standards on the means of complying with the reporting obligation and on the concrete organisational requirements described in the article, with power delegated to the Commission to adopt those standards.
