Technical Instruction for Obligors Submitting Prescribed Information to the Official Register of Prescribed Information and the Croatian Financial Services Supervisory Agency
The Croatian Financial Services Supervisory Agency (Hanfa) issued this Technical Instruction to standardize the electronic submission of prescribed information by issuers to its reporting system and the Official Register of Prescribed Information (SRPI). It mandates the use of qualified electronic signatures via crypto devices, outlines precise registration and authorization procedures through FINA-issued authentication certificates, and details step-by-step data entry workflows for various report types (SRPI, SRPI-G, ESEF, financial, compliance, and related persons lists) in PDF, XLS, XML, and ZIP formats. The instruction transitions from advanced to qualified electronic signatures starting 1 April 2023, supersedes the January 2021 version, and establishes clear operational prerequisites for authorized users accessing Hanfa's online portal.
