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.
