INTERNATIONAL: DSB Gathers Feedback on Additional Use Cases for ISINs

Tuesday August 21 2018

The Derivatives Service Bureau (DSB), have announced the publication of their Industry Consultation Report. The DSB is founded by the Association of Numbering Agencies (ANNA) to facilitate the allocation and maintenance of International Securities Identification Numbers (ISINs) for OTC Derivatives.

The DSB’s report gathers industry feedback, and documents it for the DSB to create additional use cases for ISINs on OTC Derivatives. As well as the industry’s calls for additional use cases for ISINs, as a direct result of consultations the DSB will also be implementing changes to the DSB Product Committee, to ensure for even broader industry participation and engagement. These changes will be complemented by further improved service levels, which will increase hours of operation to 24 x 6.5, and publication of monthly ISIN analytics as the DSB continues to improve its transparency and accountability model.

In conjunction with releasing the Consultation Report, the DSB has also published the draft User Agreement and associated policies, giving visibility over the draft changes and an opportunity to comment, with a final version being published 20th September 2018.
