CSD-registered company

CSD-registered company

A CSD-registered company is a limited company whose share ledger is kept by a central securities depository.

What is a CSD-registered company?

A CSD-registered company (Swedish: avstämningsbolag) is a limited company with a CSD clause in its articles of association. Its shares are then registered electronically with a central securities depository, in Sweden Euroclear Sweden, and no share certificates are issued. This is required for listed companies, among others.

 

CSD-registered companies and the share ledger

In a CSD-registered company, the share ledger is kept by the depository as a CSD register. Most Swedish limited companies are instead non-CSD companies, where the board itself is responsible for the share ledger. NVR serves these companies.
