Question
Should account numbers and other identifiers related to obligors be anonymised? How does this apply to identifier fields for underlying exposures, obligors, collateral, and tenants, in the underlying exposure templates?
Answer
[ESMA 33-128-563 Securitisation Q&A, Q&A 5.1.22] Yes, as set out in the respective field descriptions (‘Content To Report’ column in the RTS on disclosure Annexes), information in these fields must be anonymised by the reporting entity. This means that no names, addresses, account numbers, national or other legal identification numbers, or other identifying information are allowed to be used as ‘identifiers’ in these templates.
