Required action

Trading Members, Multi-Member Providers and ISVs are requested to get familiar with the updated Member Section.

Overview of functional enhancements

Trader Admission

With the new enhancements in the “Booking” section, clients will be able to focus more on the function and interaction in the Member Section. 

Within the Trader Admission, the action "Book Inhouse Event" has been renamed to "Request Inhouse Event". When selecting "Request Inhouse Event", the user chooses the option to conduct the exam inhouse. In the next step, the user needs to contact the Capital Markets Academy to arrange the training/exam inhouse. With this change, we want to make the use of our services more intuitive for our clients.

With the introduction of Release 2.7, clients can book a Capital Markets Academy training/exams through the Member Section via a single sign-on link under the following path: 

Trading&Clearing Administration > My Applications > Manage My Training & Exams

without having to enter the login details again. There is no action required for clients regarding the Trader Admission changes, they will be immediately able to use the new functionality.

Switch-off function for Central Coordinator/Deputy notifications

With the introduction of the Member Section Release 2.7, a switch-off function for notifications will be introduced. As of 20 December 2021, Central Coordinators and Deputies have the possibility to switch off the notifications in the Member Section under:

My Profile > Task Notifications
