Excel Reporting System (ERS)
Published: Friday November 5th, 2010
Amended: Tuesday December 4th, 2012
The Central Bank of the Bahamas (the Bank) has updated its official release of its Excel Reporting System (ERS) from Version 2.0 to Version 2.5 for the Authorised Dealers and Authorised Agents and Version 2.4 replaces Version 2.0 for the International Licensees. The latest revisions to the ERS is in the context of the Bank’s market risk framework, which now includes a suite of nine additional reporting forms in the ERS.
All public licensees with the exception of branches and pure trust companies are expected to report on their ‘Trading Book’. Those that meet the deminimus threshold will be required to complete as appropriate the suite of Market Risk forms.
The Guidance Notes for the Completion of the ERS, which serve as a companion tool to assist licensees in completing the ERS, has now been supplemented with a subsidiary Guidance Notes for the Completion of the Market Risk Reporting Forms.
“Authorised Dealers” and “Authorised Agents” should note that the revised ERS comprises the following suite of monthly and quarterly reporting forms (see table below). However, for International Licensees, all reports in the table below are to be reported quarterly, only. To further improve the synergies provided by this initiative, we encourage institutions, to the extent possible, to create links between the report forms and individual accounting systems.
