Securities Depositories Clause Samples
The Securities Depositories clause defines the use and role of securities depositories in the holding and transfer of financial instruments under the agreement. It typically specifies that securities may be held in accounts with recognized depositories, such as the Depository Trust Company (DTC), and outlines the procedures for settlement, transfer, and record-keeping when securities are immobilized or dematerialized. This clause ensures that parties understand how securities will be managed and transferred electronically, reducing risks associated with physical certificates and streamlining settlement processes.

(b) Bank shall provide Customer an analysis of the custody risks (which analyses may be provided to Customer electronically) associated with maintaining Customer’s Foreign Assets with each Eligible Securities Depository used by Bank and at which any Foreign Assets of Customer are held or are expected to be held. Bank shall use reasonable efforts to provide such analysis at least annually on March 31st of each calendar year (or, in the case of an Eligible Securities Depository not used by Bank as of the agreed upon date, prior to the initial placement of Customer’s Foreign Assets at such Depository after such date).

(d) Bank’s obligation to provide Customer with Additional Information shall be limited to the extent Additional Information is (i) already in the possession of Bank, or (ii) available to Bank using commercially reasonable means.
