Launch of Prudential Information Survey for Registered Persons

The Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (the “Authority”) hereby advises that all entities registered as Registered Persons are required to submit the Prudential Information Survey (ADR-046-75-02) for the 2025 calendar year, covering the reporting period 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025, via the Regulatory Enhanced Electronic Forms Submission (REEFS) portal.

The Prudential Information Survey will be available for completion from 1 January 2026 to 31 March 2026.

This survey is issued pursuant to section 6(b)(i) of the Monetary Authority Act (2020 Revision) and forms part of the Authority’s ongoing supervisory programme. The information collected will assist the Authority in assessing sector-specific activities, exposures and associated risk areas for Registered Persons operating in or from within the Cayman Islands. The data obtained will support the Authority’s efforts to enhance the resilience, transparency and prudential soundness of the securities investment business sector.

Registered Persons are encouraged to review the Guidance for Registered Person Prudential Information Survey, which provides technical assistance and additional guidance on the completion of the survey. For further queries, Registered Persons may contact the Securities Supervision Division at contactsecurities@cima.ky.

The Authority further advises that the introduction of the Prudential Information Survey does not replace the requirement for Registered Persons to submit the Annual Declaration (ADR-046-75). The Annual Declaration will be available on REEFS from 1 January 2026 to 15 January 2026, covering the same reporting period of 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025.

The Authority emphasises the importance of the timely completion and accuracy of all information provided in both the Annual Declaration and the Prudential Information Survey.
