The Spanish National Securities Market Commission (CNMV) issued Circular 5/2013 to establish standardized models and technical requirements for the annual corporate governance reports of listed public limited companies, savings banks, and other entities issuing securities on regulated markets. The regulation mandates that these entities submit their reports via the CNMV's Electronic Registry, specifying formats, content structures, and statistical annexes, while allowing for free PDF formats under strict conditions. It also details exemptions for specific sections based on compliance with the Code of Good Governance and repeals previous circulars governing corporate governance reporting.
