This Commission Delegated Regulation (‘Regulation’) shall be applied in line with the risk-based approach. The extent and the nature of the information to be obtained and the measures to be applied by obliged entities shall be commensurate with the type and level of risk identified and shall enable obliged entities to manage and mitigate that risk appropriately.
