Passporting for financial institutions

Article 34(3) of Directive 2013/36/EU (CRD) (same wording with 24(3) of the Banking Consolidation Directive) states that "Paragraphs 1 and 2 shall apply accordingly to subsidiaries of a financial institution as referred to in the first subparagraph of paragraph 1". We are trying to understand what this para. 34 (3) means. Let us assume that there is a financial institution (Institution A), as defined in point (26) of Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 CRR, which is not “a subsidiary of a credit institution or the jointly owned subsidiary of two or more credit institutions”. That financial institution then has a subsidiary (Institution B) that is itself a financial institution within the meaning of point (26) of Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. Would that subsidiary (Institution B) be able to passport itself into another member state, per the provisions of Article 34(3)?

If Alcimos becomes authorized to provide portfolio management and investment advice services under Annex I, Section A (4) and (5) of Directive 2004/39/EC (“Investment advice”) it is then a” financial institution” as defined in point (26) of Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, since it will be providing the activities listed in points 9 and 11 of Annex I to Directive 2013/36/EU. Let us now assume that Alcimos sets up a financial leasing company, authorized in is a home member state. Would that financial leasing subsidiary be able to passport itself into another member state by virtue of Article 34(3)?
