Finansinspektionen issued these general guidelines to repeal its previous regulations (FFFS 1996:16) concerning applications for authorization as an exchange or marketplace or for a clearing operations license under the Exchange and Clearing Operations Act (1992:543). The new guidelines became effective on 1 June 2013, replacing the former framework for regulatory approvals in these specific financial market sectors. This update streamlines the legal basis for Finansinspektionen's oversight of exchange, marketplace, and clearing operations in Sweden.
