About Central Securities Depository of Iran
Founded in 2005 as a public joint stock company, Central Securities
Depository of Iran (CSDI) is the sole registry entity and custodian in
the Iranian capital market using the hybrid registry system with a fully
dematerialized book entry system. Enjoying a history of 45 years, the
Iranian capital market was demutualized in 2005, and as a result, CSDI
was legally segregated from the rest of the capital market and
commenced to work as an independent and separate entity. It is the
central registrar and clearing house for all the exchanges in Iran
including Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE), Iran Fara Bourse (IFB), Iran
Mercantile Exchange (IME), and Iran Energy Exchange (IEE). It takes
over the registry, clearing, and settlement issues related to equity,
Islamic securities (Sukuk), derivatives, energy contracts, electricity,
mercantile products by means of a full-fashioned registry system and
multi-currency (USD, IRR, Euro). The prospects of CSDI are to prepare
the infrastructures indispensable for the efficiency, continuity, and
growth of the economy of the markets under its cover.
