Finansinspektionen amended its general guidelines on governance and control of financial undertakings by removing central securities depositories from the list of applicable entities. The revised guidelines continue to apply to exchanges, clearing organisations, authorized insurance intermediaries, and other specified financial entities, while excluding central counterparties regulated under EU Regulation 648/2012. These changes entered into force on 1 March 2016, with transitional provisions allowing older guidelines to apply to central securities depositories during a specified period.
