ACPR Compliance with EBA and ESMA Guidelines on Fitness Assessment for Management Bodies and Qualified Shareholders of ART Issuers and CASPs

The Prudential Control and Resolution Authority (ACPR) declares its compliance with the joint EBA and ESMA guidelines (EBA/GL/2024/09) regarding the fitness assessment of management bodies and qualified shareholders of Asset-Referenced Token (ART) issuers and Crypto-Asset Service Providers (CASPs). The ACPR intends to apply all provisions of these guidelines to supervised entities, treating the guideline's maximum assessment deadline as a best practice while adhering to the legally binding two-month national deadline. Supervised entities are expected to take all necessary measures to comply with these requirements according to specific ACPR instructions, which entered into force on February 4, 2025.
