CSDR – Settlement Discipline Regime Frequently Asked Questions
The Settlement Discipline Regime (SDR) came into effect on February 1, 2022 and at RBCIS we make every effort that our clients are informed about these changes. Please note, on November 24, 2021 a regulatory amendment was agreed by three institutions of the European Union to allow for the mandatory buy-in rules of SDR to be postponed. These did not come into effect with other aspects of the regime on February 1, 2022.
