About Central Securities Depository of Iran
Organization Overview
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 50 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 Farabourse (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) with a high netting efficiency of 85 percent. The prospects of CSDI are to prepare the infrastructures indispensible for the efficiency, continuity, and growth of the economy of the markets under its cover.
