Ocean Land Mountain

Elevating from the ground with steepness and continuity to form peaks and reach altitudes, mountains are dynamically rich hubs of life and reservoirs of fresh water. With the course of time, these mighty summits evolved by the action of volcanic eruptions and frost; shaping into symbols of struggle and achievement.

Likewise, Capital Market is a hub of evolving opportunities for investors and stakeholders to climb and grow through upstream financial paths, formed over decades, and reach heights of success. Such rich and challenging financial market systems are systemized by CDC to bring greater safety and stability to the investors.

CCDC participates in 20th ACG AGM and Conference in Tehran, Iran

DC believes in knowledge sharing and values participation in collaborative efforts for development of the Capital Market, both on regional and global levels. One such platform on which CDC represents Pakistan is the Asia-Pacific Central Securities Depository Group (ACG). The 20th Annual ACG General Meeting and Conference this year was hosted by the Central Securities Depository of Iran (CSDI) in December 2016 in Tehran, Iran. As the secretariat of ACG (2014-2016), CDC was responsible for leading the central coordination for the event.

ACG organizes two annual events, and the Annual General Meeting and Conference is one of them. It consists of two parts, the Conference which includes public sessions and discussions, and the General Meeting which is a member only session held for the purpose of decision making regarding key issues linked with ACG. This year the conference was held from December 5 to 9, 2016 on the theme ‘Need of Further Collaboration of CSDs in the Evolving Business Environment’, and was attended by 90 participants from 21 ACG member countries. This meeting also marked two decades of the association’s journey in providing opportunities for mutual growth to the CSDs of the region. Mr. Muhammad Hanif Jakhura, CEO-CDC, addressed the conference as the Chairman of the Executive Committee of ACG and appreciated the efforts of the association members for choosing a pertinent theme to

make the most of the opportunity. He also reflected upon ACG’s role in promoting technological reforms and cross-border collaborations in the CSD industry of the region. Syed Asif Shah, CIO-CDC shared his insights in the panel discussion on “How innovative and effective systems in CSDs help accelerating developements of the Capital Market”

The most significant initiative taken at this year’s AGM was the launch of the Chief Information Securities Officers (CISO) Forum by the ACG Technical Task Force. The core purpose of this forum is to gather unique insights concerning the cyber-crime threat relevant to Central Securities Depositories and Securities Settlement System.

entral Depository Company has always strived to enhance the understanding of our valued clients regarding the rules, regulations and procedures governing the operations of CDC. In September 2016, CDC conducted its flagship Element Training Program for the ninth cycle. During the program, CDS participants were enlightened about the developments as well as the common procedures and regulations to be followed in

respect of CDS operations. The training was held in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad from September 19 to 30, 2016. Like previous years, the training program focused on CDS Elements including Participants, Issuers, R/TAs and Pledgees.

The program helps CDS elements refresh their understanding about the roles and responsibilities that result from their association with CDS. This

forum also provides an opportunity to CDS Elements to ask questions and share concerns directly with CDC personnel. The training was jointly conducted by Operations and Customer Support Services, Legal, Compliance & Risk and Internal Audit Departments and was organized by Product Development and Marketing Department.

n 2000, the mutual fund industry started flourishing in the Pakistani Capital Market and provided a new concept and investment arena to retail and individual investors who possess inadequate knowledge of the capital market but are interested in utilizing its benefits.

CDC, realizing the importance and service demands of this sector, started Trustee & Custodial Services in 2002, initially with two open-ended mutual funds having net asset value of Rs. 500 million. In a short span of time, CDC’s Trustee & Custodial Services, by keeping itself abreast with developments in the mutual fund industry operation, has achieved tremendous growth. The Company, through its proactive approach and high standards of service, has obtained the leading position in this service sector and is currently providing Trustee & Custodial Services to 167 Mutual Funds including 17 Pension Funds being managed by various Asset Management Companies (AMCs) / Pension Fund Managers (PFMs) with an aggregate Fund size of approximately Rs. 702 billion. As Trustee and Custodian, CDC’s role is to take into custody all the assets of the Collective Investment Schemes/Pension Funds, hold them in trust on behalf of the unit/certificate holders and carry out instructions of AMCs/PFMs in respect of the investment portfolio. Throughout the process, CDC

ensures regulatory compliances, protecting unit holders’ interests and maintaining confidentiality and resilience. In 2010, to provide for the inherent need of the growing Capital Market, CDC took another step and introduced Custody Service for Discretionary and non-Discretionary Portfolios (Portfolio Clients) under the umbrella of its Trustee & Custodial Services. In general, Portfolio Clients (including provident / gratuity funds) enjoy greater freedom and convenience through tailor made investment strategies based on specific objectives and preferences. For the purpose, clients with inadequate knowledge have direct access to research based expert guidance and customized solutions such as risk profiling, asset allocation advice and investment strategy review, provided by the Investment Advisor. Under this arrangement, Portfolio Clients prefer to appoint CDC as their independent Custodian to ensure transparency and safekeeping of their securities. Our commitment to the Custody Service is demonstrated by our continuous investment in human resource and technology to provide Portfolio Clients with swift and efficient services. The strength of our Custody Service lies in:

* Settlement of investments on the advice of investment advisor* Safekeeping of securities

* Reporting to clients depicting the picture of investor’s portfolio * Cash management and treasury functions.

Together, these strengths enable us to give our Portfolio Clients an unsurpassed level of support and service. The opportunity also gave us recognition in the local market under the new role of Custodian.

In the past six months our custodian business comprising of Portfolio Clients made another history and saw the number of portfolios hit the 100 mark, with net assets worth of Rs. 24.91 billion. CDC’s major Portfolio Clients include employee benefit funds (gratuity and provident funds), high net worth individuals and separately managed corporate portfolios in the following fragmentation.

Launch of CDC Urdu Website n accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) directive, CDC developed and launched an Urdu version of its website in the month of September.

The move has been implemented to cater to the vast portion of the country’s investor base and will serve to make CDC’s website more accessible and user-friendly.

Health Register added to CISSII n extension has been made in the first phase of Centralized Information Sharing Solution for Insurance Industry (CISSII) with the addition of Health Insurance Claims Experience Register. The information sharing of health insurance claims is aimed at facilitating the pricing and underwriting functions of the life and non-life insurers while reducing the risks of anti-selection and fraudulent claims. This addition will encourage organized development of the insurance market in Pakistan and help maintain minimum service standards. It will also bring non-life insurance companies within the ambit of CISSII.

SECP has issued a formal directive requiring all life and non-life

insurers/family takaful operators engaged in underwriting the group health insurance/takaful business to start sharing information regarding group health claims experience from November 01, 2016 onwards. 18 Life and non-life insurers/takaful operators have already signed MoU with CDC in this regard. Participants have started sharing information after formal signing of agreement.

CISSII was launched by CDC in April 2014 as a central database through which all stakeholders of the insurance industry can access pertinent information, greatly reducing the risks associated with management of filed claims. The life insurers are already sharing information in respect of Agents (the codified misconduct), Adverse Information in respect of declined/postponed Life Risks, Individual Claims experience, and Group Life Insurance Claims experience. Earlier, the SECP issued a directive requiring all life insurers to be part of this information sharing mechanism.

The launch of CISSII is the first phase in the implementation of an Insurance Repository, moving towards complete dematerialization of insurance policies and maintenance of historical records which will ensure a high level of transparency and efficiency in the insurance industry.

CDC hosts dinnerin honour of Mr. Mushtaq Chhapra DC hosted a dinner in the honour of Mr. Mushtaq Chhapra, Chairman – The Citizens Foundation (TCF) on September 8, 2016. Mr. Chhapra has recently been conferred the prestigious civil award, ‘Sitara-e-Imtiaz’, for his services and

contribution towards education and social welfare. This dinner was held in celebration of this monumental honour.

The dinner was attended by several leading members of the corporate

world along with people from the social sector. Mr. Chhapra was presented a shield in honour of his services by Mr. Muhammad Hanif Jakhura, CEO – CDC.

In its two decade history, TCF has been providing access to education to the scores of underprivileged youth in the country. TCF now boasts of over 1200 schools spanning the entire country with 175,000 students enrolled. The success of TCF is a testament to the leadership and vision of Mr. Chhapra.

These campuses maintain excellent educational standards and provide subsidized education along with support for books, stationery, uniforms etc.

Upgrading Windows XP Operating System to Windows 7 SP1 or greater on CDS Terminals

[Circular: July 14, 2016]

Clients were informed that Microsoft officially ceased supporting Windows XP Operating System back in 2014 and has recommended to upgrade to newer Operating Systems like Windows 7 SP1 or beyond. Therefore, continuing with Windows XP, being an un-supported and vulnerable operating system can cause security issues like hacking and loss of information etc.

Furthermore, CDC is in process of upgrading its firewalls to keep abreast with latest technology and to improve its information security. The new firewall does not support Windows XP operating system and will restrict those clients who are still using Windows XP based terminals to connect VPN.

Therefore, the clients having Windows XP were requested to upgrade the operating systems of their terminals by 31 August, 2016. After this date, CDC does not stand responsible to extend its services or support to Windows XP based clients.

Account Title Synchronization with UIN Title

[Circular: August 11, 2016]

In line with the efforts towards achieving Straight-through Processing (STP) in the Capital

Market operations, CDC recently developed functionality in Central Depository System (CDS) namely “Account Title Synchronization with UIN Title”.

After promotion of this functionality, Participants are no longer required to enter Account Title and Joint Account Holder(s) name manually at the time of opening of new sub account. Upon entering of UIN in the designated field of CDS for the purpose of account opening, title is automatically populated in the designated field as mentioned in the UIN database.

Further, Account Title and Joint holder(s) name are not allowed to be amended once inserted in the posted account. For matching the account title of existing sub accounts, Participants are no longer required to furnish a request letter to CDC and instead they can now press the newly added “Synchronize A/c Title” button (in account setup screen) and the system will update the title (account and joint holder) as per title(s) mentioned in the UIN database. However, Participants shall not use “Synchronize Account Title” button for Trustee, Minor and Manager to offer accounts.

Moreover, at the time of new account opening, in case where the account title is different from the UIN database (for e.g. Trustee accounts, account of the Minors, Manager to the offer etc. needs to be added in account title), a request letter for by-pass will be required from the Participant, signed by their authorized signatories along with the certified true copies of the relevant supporting documents, enabling them to have the authority to insert

the title other than the title mentioned in the UIN database.

Above functionality has been made effective from Monday, August 15, 2016. The Procedure for Opening & Updating Sub-Accounts in CDS is also available on CDC’s corporate website www.cdcpakistan.com.

Regularization of Sub-Account UINs

[Circular: November 17, 2016]

With an objective to achieve transparency in the market mechanisms, CDC informed its Participants regarding regularization of Sub-Accounts with respect to expiry of CNICs via circular dated June 29, 2016. Subsequently, CDC developed a new report by the title of “UIN Expiry Report” through which Participants can download the details of all accounts with expired UINs and UIN close to expiry, irrespective of UIN type and whether it belongs to Principal or Joint holder(s). The same was also communicated via circular dated October 18, 2016. Additionally, they were informed that CDC had initiated a one-time activity whereby CDC had requested National Database & Regulatory Authority (NADRA) for updated expiry dates of the CNICs / NICOPs of Sub-Account holders. Through this activity, a major portion of the said expiry data will be made available in CDS which would in turn facilitate the Participants to regularize the expired CNICs / NICOPs records under their Participant umbrella.

It is important to mention here that the expiry date of other UINs, such as

The regime was successfully implemented last year and will continue to be applicable on all TREC holders.

In this respect, there had been a few amendments in the Procedures of AuC, duly approved by SECP in order to bring more transparency and efficiency to the Regime. The material highlights of the changes made are mentioned below: • The minimum requirement of auditors has been changed from [auditors having satisfactory QCR rating from the ICAP] to [Category “A” or “B” of the SBP’s Panel of Auditors] in order to bring the criteria in line with the criteria laid out by PSX. • It has been made mandatory to mention the number of PSX shares held by the Participant in the corresponding notes to the accounts.

• Changes have been made in the format of Auditor’s Certificate in order to bring in more clarity.

Furthermore, in accordance with the CDCPL Regulations and Procedures,

all TREC holders were required to submit to CDC, the certified true copy of Audited Financial Statements or Original Auditor’s Certificate as at June 30, 2016 as per prescribed format attached with the Procedures, latest by November 04, 2016.

Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan’s Official Twitter Account[Circular: September 20, 2016]

The apex regulator of capital markets, non-banking companies and corporate sector, the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) also started using “Twitter” for dissemination of information to public at large, in addition to dissemination of information to regulates, investors.

passport etc. had not been undertaken in this one time activity as these documents do not come under the scope of NADRA. Therefore, Participants were required to arrange for regularization of such data at their end along with those CNIC / NICOP that still appear expired after the initial above mentioned activity. This measure by CDC will help reduce the regularization burden of the Participants greatly and would expedite the due compliance.

Facility of e-Alerts and SMS-alerts for expiry date of UIN

[Circular: December 21, 2016]

To further facilitate the Participants and Investors, and to ensure accuracy of the account details with respect to validation of UINs (such as CNIC, NICOP, Passport & POC etc.), CDC enhanced its facility of e-Alerts and SMS-alerts in CDS to intimate the clients regarding expiry and near to expiry of the UINs mentioned in their respective accounts. Through this facility, Investors are being intimated at the following two events:

• One month prior to the UIN expiry date in CDS.

• On the date of UIN expiry. After introduction of this facility, now the Investors are also being intimated in addition to the Participants who were already being provided with the relevant reports as communicated via circular dated November 22, 2016. This measure undertaken by CDC will strengthen the compliance mechanism of the expiry date validation in CDS.
