Finland: Delay with the issuance of TRACE reconciliation files

11.03.2022

Further to Announcement D21054 concerning the new TRACE - Relief at source and quick refund process for publicly listed Finnish equities and the possibility for customers with Authorised Intermediary (AI) status to request a reconciliation file, Clearstream Banking1 informs customers that Clearstream Banking is currently facing a delay with the issuance of such file.

Impact on customers

Customers having AI status, may still request a reconciliation file from Clearstream Banking. However, in light of this delay, Clearstream Banking can, at this stage, only complete such request at an unspecified time. We will provide an update to customers as soon as possible.
