(a) Formal Request for Information

As part of the CBB's ongoing supervision or specifically for the purpose of the market surveillance function, the CBB may, by direction, specifically request information or temporary or ad-hoc reporting from a licensee under Article 111 of the CBB Law, or from persons related to any licensee under Article 113 of the CBB Law, and the recipients of such request are bound to provide the information requested within the time specified by the CBB.

The CBB may use the periodic reports and event-based reports submitted by a capital market service provider or a member of an SRO to the CBB, or to a self-regulatory organization (SRO) (including a licensed exchange or market operator and a licensed clearing house or central depository). For example, the CBB may use a Suspicious Transaction Report made by a capital market service provider or a member of an SRO under the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating Financial Crime Module (AML/CFC Module), or the Prohibition of Market Abuse and Market Manipulation Module (MAM Module) for the purpose of obtaining information relating to market surveillance.

As per Article 63 of the CBB Law, the CBB may request from the external auditors of a capital market service provider or a member of an SRO to increase the scope of audit and provide additional information to the CBB, and the information and reports provided by the external auditors can be used by the CBB for the CBB's market surveillance function.
(f) Notifications, Registrations, Filings and other Communications

The CBB may use any information contained in any of the notifications, registrations, filings and other communications received from the CBB licensees and related parties for the purpose of the market surveillance function.
