Article 6 Sources d’information pour l’évaluation de la criticité

Summary What does Article 6 of the Criteria for designating critical service providers say?

This short but important procedural article establishes the data sources and data currency rules that the ESAs must follow when conducting their criticality assessments under Articles 2 to 5.

It anchors the assessment process to the registers of information that financial entities are required to maintain under DORA, while also allowing the ESAs to draw on any other available data at their disposal.

Important points:

The ESAs are required to use data from the DORA registers of information as the primary source for assessing all sub-criteria set out in Articles 2 to 5.
The ESAs may supplement their assessment with any additional data available to them from other sources.
The ESAs must use the most recent data available during the assessment year, or data available by 31 December of the preceding year at the latest.

Les AES peuvent aussi utiliser, pour l’évaluation de la criticité, des données supplémentaires dont elles disposent et qui proviennent de toute source d’information.
