The Russian Bank is reconsidering the criteria for classifying brokers, managers, dealers, and depositories into categories of large, medium, and small organizations. The current threshold values no longer correspond to the scale of the market.Project instructionspublished for public discussion.
When evaluating companies, the volume of transactions they make and the nature of their operations are taken into account. Depending on the category the professional participant falls into, a list of regulatory requirements applicable to it and the degree of supervision over its activities will be determined.
From 2020 to 2025, the situation in the financial market changed, which led to a significant increase in the actual performance indicators of professional participants: the client base expanded, the volume of concluded transactions increased several times, and the volume of assets in clients’ accounts grew.
New indicator values allow excluding excessive regulatory and supervisory burdens on those companies that do not hold a significant market share and are not a source of material risks.
