National Bank of Moldova consults on revising supervision rules for the single central securities depository

The National Bank of Moldova published a draft decision to amend its Regulation on the supervision of the Single Central Securities Depository, updating the framework to reflect recent legislative and regulatory changes affecting financial market infrastructures. The proposed revision is intended to align the supervision and monitoring approach with Law No. 292/2023, which strengthens the legal framework for financial market infrastructures including oversight of the Single Central Securities Depository, and Law No. 174/2024, which updates the National Bank of Moldova’s operating and administrative procedures and reinforces its role across supervised areas. The review also takes account of the Regulation on monitoring financial market infrastructures, schemes, arrangements and payment instruments, which entered into force on 20 December 2024. Recommendations can be submitted to the National Bank of Moldova until 21 March 2025.
