The Commission d’Organisation et de Surveillance des Opérations de Bourse (COSOB) issued Instruction No. 24-01 to establish the specific qualification requirements for the general manager of a Stock Exchange Intermediary (IOB) company and the head of the IOB structure within banks and financial institutions. These individuals must hold a higher education degree and pass a COSOB-certified exam on financial market professionals or possess a Commission-recognized diploma in securities trading. The instruction applies immediately upon signature, repeals the previous 2016 instruction, and grants a temporary exemption from the examination requirement for incumbents already in office.
