Evolution of Module
ES-A.2.1
This Module was first issued in April 2006 by the BMA, as part of the first phase of Volume 4 (Investment Business). Any material changes that have subsequently been made to this Module are annotated with the end calendar quarter date in which the change was made: Chapter UG-3 provides further details on Rulebook maintenance and version control.
Amended: January 2007ES-A.2.2
When the CBB replaced the BMA in September 2006, the provisions of this Module remained in force. Volume 4 was updated in July 2007 to reflect the switch to the CBB; however, new calendar quarter dates were only issued for Module ES where the update necessitated changes to substance (as opposed to merely updating 'BMA' to 'CBB', and similar references).
Added: January 2007ES-A.2.3
