Article 3 Enregistrement des politiques et des procédures du prestataire de services sur crypto-actifs

Summary What does Article 3 of the RTS on record keeping say?

This article sets out record-keeping obligations for crypto-asset service providers specifically concerning their internal policies and procedures.

Beyond simply retaining the written policies themselves, it extends the requirement to also capture the ongoing governance activity around those policies, namely the management body's assessments and periodic reviews of their effectiveness, findings of any deficiencies, and the measures taken to address them.

Important points:

Keep records of all written policies and procedures required under Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 and its implementing measures.
Keep records of the management body's periodic reviews of the effectiveness of those policy arrangements and procedures.
Document any deficiencies identified during those reviews, along with the measures taken to address them.
