ECMS and SCoRE: Implementation - Update
Note: This announcement, originally published on 24 October 2024, has been amended to add reporting information. Changes have been highlighted.
Clearstream’s Eurosystem Collateral Management System (ECMS) Programme will implement the collateral management harmonisation standards set by the Advisory Group for Market Infrastructure for Securities Collateral (AMI-SeCo) Single Collateral Management Rulebook for Europe (SCoRE) and facilitate triparty collateral management with central banks via the European Central Bank's (ECB) ECMS platform.
The SCoRE standards part of this programme aim to implement 15 new corporate actions standards to ensure harmonised corporate actions processes and workflows across the AMI-SeCo markets.
In order to comply with the SCoRE Corporate Action Standard 1, Clearstream Banking AG1 will change the TEFRA-D processing for German domestic securities effective

The issuers, issuing agents or lead managers who deal or issue securities subject to TEFRA D on the German market will have an impact on their processing in terms of reporting.

- KD179001: Fristende Leadmanager Vorabinfo
