At the meeting of July 1, 2022, the Board of Directors of the National Commission for Financial Markets (NCFM), according to the mission and tasks conferred by the law, approved decisions related to the non-banking financial market, inter alia:
- The draft amendments of certain NCFM regulations related to the activity of credit history bureaus, which aims to bring them in line with the provisions of Law no. 122/2008 on the credit history bureaus (amended by Law no. 175/2021). The main changes and updates aim to exclude the obligation of expressing individual consent for the processing of information from the credit history, with the obligation of the source/user of information to obey the legislation on personal data protection. The draft law also provides for expanding the list of entities that can serve as formation sources of credit history and specifying the type and volume of information that can be requested by the user etc. In addition, given the obligation of all creditors (banking and non-banking) to verify credit history information in all licensed bureaus, the price of a credit report obtained as a result of information exchange between bureaus has been capped, in order to maintain a financial balance in relation to consumers - individuals.
- Amendment of Annex 1 of the NCFM Decision no. 25/2 of 24.06.2019 on the presentation, approval and application of the actuarial calculations of the compulsory motor third party liability insurance premiums.
