Question

Can the category response ‘OTHR’ (i.e. ‘Other’) be used in cases where the answer is unknown or unavailable and where there is no option/possibility to enter ‘ND1’, ‘ND2’, ‘ND3’, ‘ND4-YYYY-MM-DD’, or ‘ND5’?

Answer

[ESMA 33-128-563 Securitisation Q&A, Q&A 5.1.18] No. The response category ‘OTHR’ (i.e. ‘Other’) constitutes a confirmation by the reporting entity that none of the remaining available response categories are true. The ‘OTHR’ (i.e. ‘Other’) response category may under no circumstances be used as a substitute for the ‘No Data’ options ND1-4 or ND5.
