List of the templates

Template Code

Template Name

Short Description

B_01.01

Entity maintaining the register of information

This template identifies the entity maintaining and updating the register of information at entity, sub-consolidated and consolidated level, respectively.

B_01.02

List of entities within the scope of consolidation

This template identifies all the entities belonging to the group. Where the financial entity responsible for maintaining and updating the register of information does not belong to a group, only that financial entity shall be reported in this template.

B_01.03

List of branches

This template identifies the branches of the financial entities referred to in template B_01.02.

B_02.01

Contractual arrangements – general information

This template lists all contractual arrangements with direct ICT third-party service providers.

For each contractual arrangement with a direct ICT third-party service provider, the financial entity maintaining the register of information shall assign a unique ‘contractual arrangement reference number’ to identify unambiguously the contractual arrangement itself.

B_02.02

Contractual arrangements – specific information

This template provides details in relation to each contractual arrangement listed in template B_02.01 with regard to:

(a)

the ICT services included in the scope of the contractual arrangement;

(b)

the functions of the financial entities supported by those ICT services;

(c)

other important information in relation to the specific ICT services provided (e.g. notice period, law governing the arrangement, etc.).

B_02.03

List of intra-group contractual arrangements

This template identifies the links between intra-group contractual arrangements and contractual arrangements with ICT third-party service providers which are not part of the group using the contractual reference numbers when part of the ICT service supply chain.

B_03.01

Entities signing the contractual arrangements for receiving ICT service(s) or on behalf of the entities making use of the ICT service(s)

This template provides information on the entity signing the contractual arrangements with the direct ICT third-party service provider for the entity making use of the ICT services.

Where the register of information is maintained and updated at entity level, the entity signing the contractual arrangement and the entity making use of the ICT services is the financial entity maintaining and updating the register of information.

In the context of sub-consolidation and consolidation, the financial entity making use of the ICT services provided is not necessarily the entity signing the contractual arrangement with the ICT third-party service providers.

B_03.02

ICT third-party service providers signing the contractual arrangements for providing ICT service(s)

This template identifies all the ICT third-party service providers referred to in template B_05.01 signing the contractual arrangements referred to in template B_02.01 for providing the ICT services.

B_03.03

Entities signing the contractual arrangements for providing ICT service(s) to other entities within the scope of consolidation

This template identifies all the entities referred to in template B_01.02 signing the contractual arrangements referred to in template B_02.01 for providing the ICT services to other entities in the consolidation.

B_04.01

Entities making use of the ICT services

This template identifies all entities making uses of the ICT services provided by ICT third-party service providers and registered in the register of information.

The entities making use of the ICT services shall be either the financial entities in scope, or the ICT intra-group service providers.

Where the register of information is maintained and updated at entity level, the entity signing the contractual arrangement and the entity making use of the ICT services are the financial entity maintaining the register.

B_05.01

ICT third-party service providers

This template lists and provides general information to identify:

(a)

the direct ICT third-party service providers;

(b)

the ICT intra-group service providers;

(c)

all subcontractors included in template B_05.02 on ICT service supply chain;

(d)

the ultimate parent undertaking of the ICT third-party service providers listed in points (a), (b) and (c).

B_05.02

ICT service supply chain

This template identifies and links the ICT third-party service providers that are part of the same ICT service supply chain.

Financial entities shall identify and rank the ICT third-party service providers for each ICT service included in each contractual arrangement.

Example: a financial entity has a contractual arrangement with an ICT third-party service provider (‘ICT third-party service provider X’) to receive 2 specific ICT services (‘ICT service A’ and ‘ICT service B’) and the service provider makes use of a subcontractor (‘ICT third-party service provider Y’) to provide one of those services (‘ICT service B’).

In relation to ICT service A, the ICT service supply chain is composed of one ICT third-party service provider, ICT third-party service provider X, which will be ranked as number 1 in the template. ICT third-party service provider X is the direct ICT third-party service provider.

In relation to ICT service B, the ICT service supply chain is composed of two ICT third-party service providers:

(a)

ICT third-party service provider X, which will be ranked number 1 in the template. ICT third-party service provider X is the direct ICT third-party service provider.

(b)

ICT third-party service provider Y, which will be ranked number 2 in the template. ICT third-party service provider Y is a subcontractor.

All ICT third-party service providers belonging to the same ICT service supply chain share the same ‘contractual arrangement reference number’ as referred to in template B_02.01 and the same type of ICT services

B_06.01

Functions identification

This template identifies and provides information on the functions of the financial entity making use of the ICT services.

In the information to be provided in this template, financial entities shall include a unique identifier, the ‘function identifier’ for each combination of a financial entity’s LEI, licenced activity and function.

Example: a financial entity (LEI: 21USLEIC20231109J3Z8) which operates under two licensed activities (‘activity A’ and ‘activity B’) will be given two unique ‘function identifiers’ for the same function X (e.g. sales) performed for activity A and activity B, respectively. The function identifier will be:

 

F1 for the combination of “21USLEIC20231109J3Z8”“Activity A” and ‘Function X”

 

F2 for the combination of “21USLEIC20231109J3Z8”“Activity B” and ‘Function X”

B_07.01

Assessments of the ICT services

This template captures information in relation to the risk assessment of the ICT services (e.g. substitutability, date of last audit, etc.) when those ICT services are supporting a critical or important function or material part thereof.

B_99.01

Definitions from entities making use of the ICT Services

This template captures entity-internal explanations, meanings, and definitions of the closed set of indicators used by the financial entity in the register of information.

Example: In template B_07.01 the financial entity shall provide an indication of the impact of discontinuation of the ICT services by using a closed set of options (low, medium, high). In template B_99.01 the financial entity shall specify the meaning of those options.

Instructions to complete template B_05.02 — ICT service supply chains

This template identifies and links the ICT third-party service providers that are part of the same ICT service supply chain together.

The ICT service supply chain shall include, where applicable:

(a)

all direct ICT third-party service providers;

(b)

all ICT intragroup service providers;

(c)

for the ICT services supporting a critical or important function or material part thereof, all subcontractors that effectively underpin the provision of those ICT services (i.e. all the subcontractors providing ICT services whose disruption would impair the security or the continuity of the service provision);

(d)

where an ICT intragroup service provider uses subcontractors to provide their ICT services to the financial entity, at least the first extra-group subcontractor even if the ICT services provided do not support a critical or important function or material parts thereof.

All ICT third-party service providers belonging to the same ICT service supply chain share:

(a)

the same ‘contractual arrangement reference number’ as referred to in template B_02.01;

(b)

the same ‘type of ICT services’ as referred to in Annex III;

Each ICT third-party service provider that belongs to the same ICT service supply chain is assigned with a ‘rank’ (template B_05.02.0050) to identify its position within the ICT service supply chain. Where multiple ICT third-party service providers have the same position within the same ICT service supply chain, those providers shall be assigned with the same ‘rank’. In accordance with Article 2, the direct ICT third-party service providers are therefore at rank 1. If the rank is higher than 1, the ICT third-party service providers are subcontractors.

To link the ICT third-party service providers that belong to the same ICT service supply chain together, for each ICT subcontractor (i.e. where the ‘rank’ is higher than 1) financial entities shall identify the ICT third-party service provider that receives its subcontracted services. The identification of the ICT third-party service provider that receives the subcontracted services shall be carried out by using the columns B_05.02.0060 and B_05.02.0070.

For each ICT service supply chain (i.e., a combination of a "contractual arrangement reference number" and a "type of ICT services", where there are multiple ICT third-party service providers receiving the subcontracted services, all of those service providers shall be reported in separate rows in the template. The same logic applies at each rank of the ICT service supply chain.
