DTR 8.3 Criteria for approval as a primary information provider
The FCA will approve a person as a primary information provider only if it is satisfied that the person will be able to:
- (1)
disseminate regulated information in a manner ensuring fast access to regulated information on a non-discriminatory basis; and
- (2)
satisfy the continuing obligations set out in DTR 8.4.
In determining whether a person applying for approval as a primary information provider satisfies the requirements in DTR 8.3.1 R, the FCA will consider, amongst other things, the report of the reporting accountant provided under DTR 8.2.1R (5).
