Xact File Transfer: Report Confidentiality Labelling

12.03.2021

Further to Announcement L20054, Clearstream Banking1 would like to inform customers that effective

14 June 2021

as part of its constant effort to guarantee the highest security standards, Clearstream Banking will implement a new “_Confidential” suffix to file-based reports, that is, “Report.csv” will change to “Report_Confidential.csv”, in order to highlight the sensitivity of the enclosed information.

Impact on customers

The new “_Confidential” suffix will be applied to all Xact File Transfer (formerly known as CreationDirect) reports delivered in “.xls(x)” or “.csv” format.

Customers need to ensure that their procedures can process the new suffix in the file name.

Further information

For further information, customers may contact the Clearstream Banking Connectivity Helpdesk or their Relationship Officer.
