In line with FSB Guidance on Identification of Critical Functions and Critical Shared Services, the payments, clearing and settlement function is limited to services provided by banks to their clients. This category does not cover services provided by (pure) FMI providers. For the purpose of this template, FMIs include payment systems, securities settlement systems, central securities depositories and central counterparties (and do not include trade repositories).\nPayment service', ‘payment transaction’ and ‘payment system’ have the same meaning as defined in Article 4(3), (5) and (7), respectively, of DIRECTIVE 2015/2366 on payment services in the internal market.\n3.1\nPayment services to MFIs\nThis row shall include payment services offered to Monetary Financial Institutions (MFIs), with or without use of external payment systems.

These services refer to withdrawals at ATMs and at branches counters and do not include other cash services (like cash-in-transit services for mass retailers). Cash withdrawal with cheques and at branches counters using bank forms (where cards may be used as identification means) are included.\n3.4\nSecurities settlement services\nServices offered to clients for confirmation, clearing and settlement of securities transactions, with or without use of securities settlement systems. ‘Settlement’ means the completion of a securities transaction where it is concluded with the aim of discharging the obligations of the parties to that transaction through the transfer of cash and/or securities.\n3.5\nCCP clearing services\nSecurities and derivatives clearing services provided to clients. This also includes the provision of indirect access to a Central Counterparty (CCP).\n3.6\nCustody services\nSafekeeping and administration of financial instruments for clients and services related to custodianship such as cash and collateral management.\n3.7, 3.8, 3.9\nOther services/activities/functions (1), (2) and (3)\nCapital Markets\nCapital markets activities shall refer to the issuance and trading of securities, related advisory services, and related services such as prime brokerage and market making.\n4.1\nDerivatives held for trading (OTC)\nArticle 2(5) and (7) of REGULATION (EU) No 648/2012.\nA derivative or derivative contract means a financial instrument as set out in points (4) to (10) of Section C of Annex I to DIRECTIVE 2014/65/EU as implemented by Article 38 and 39 of REGULATION (EC) No 1287/2006.\nAn OTC derivative or OTC derivative contract means a derivative contract the execution of which does not take place on a regulated market within the meaning of Article 4(1)(21) of DIRECTIVE 2014/65/EU or on a third-country market considered to be equivalent to a regulated market in accordance with Article 2a of REGULATION (EU) No 648/2012.\nThe amount to be reported shall only include derivatives traded in the OTC market.\n4.2\nDerivatives held for trading (non-OTC)\nAll derivatives held for trading, excluding OTC derivatives held for trading.\n4.3\nSecondary markets/Trading:\nThe secondary market is where investors buy and sell securities. This function applies to the total trading portfolio (i.e. equity, corporate credit, sovereign credit).\nThe amount to be reported shall include value of securities measured as the total amount of securities in the held-for-trading. Securities shall be reported at fair value at the reporting date.\nThe amount shall not include loans, derivatives and non-tradable assets (e.g. receivables).\n4.4\nPrimary markets/underwriting\nPrimary markets shall mean where new securities are issued on an exchange by companies, governments, and other groups in order to obtain financing through debt-based or equity-based securities (like common and preferred stock, corporate bonds, notes, bills, government bonds). Primary markets are facilitated by underwriting groups.\n4.5, 4.6, 4.7\nOther services/activities/functions (1), (2) and (3)\nWholesale Funding\nLending and borrowing activities in wholesale markets to and from financial counterparties (credit institutions and other financial corporations).\n5.1\nBorrowing\nBorrowing in wholesale markets from financial counterparties (including by way of repurchase agreements, interbank borrowing, commercial paper, certificate of deposits, money market funds, lines of credit, asset-backed commercial paper and fiduciary deposits).\n5.2\nDerivatives (assets)\nAll derivatives with financial counterparties held on the asset side of the balance sheet.
