Further to the update of 14th August 2013, the World Forum of CSDs (WFC) has issued recommendations to world regulators in its response to the CPSS IOSCO consultative report on the recovery of financial market infrastructures. In summary, the WFC has recommended:

CSDs should have sufficient discretion and flexibility to choose the most appropriate recovery tools and their sequence.The CPSS IOSCO report should clarify which tools apply to which type of infrastructure.The report should recognise that loss sharing will in many cases not be applicable to CSDs.The distinction between recovery and resolution could be clarified.CSDs should communicate transparently to their participants, but the full recovery plan should not be a public document.CSD recovery plans should consider the impact of recovery on third parties, taking into account limitations on access to information on third parties.
