4 Country Specifics: Put-through.
Put-through information becomes necessary when a direct (telephone) trade has been made
between parties, skipping the legal requirement in Spain of going through an organized market in
order to exchange beneficial ownership.
When the 2 parties deliver the instructions to their correspondent local custodians to exchange the
securities, they warn about the necessity of a put-through operation, to be actually done by either
of the local sub custodians.
Only in the very rare case that the necessity of the put-through is already known and
acknowledged by the instructing account owner (message sender) at the time of sending of its
instructions to the local sub-custodian, the following formatting was agreed by the Spain NMPG:

5 Securities lending and borrowing settlement:
This matching system is based in the same principles that the Unified Matching System (SUC)
for transfers between participants under the same beneficiary, which is already in force since last
March.
FORE WORD: It must be stated very clearly that the counterpart to be instructed refers to the
actual registration of the loan, not the instructing party.
The information concerning the maturity date of a loan term will be optional.
a) If a client includes this date on the ISO 15022 instruction, the information will be released to
the market.
b) If no date is included then no information will be released when the loan is transmitted.
REPO SEQUENCE
:98A::TERM//YYYYMMDD (preferred option)
OR
TRADDET SEQUENCE
:70E::SPRO//TERM YYYYMMDD
If it is decided not to populate this field, the consequences are going to be the following:
¾ The counterpart’s instruction sent to Iberclear must also leave the field unpopulated, in order
for the instructions to match within the matching system.
¾ Should the counterpart’s instruction reflect the maturity date, the instructions will not match
and to sort out the mismatch the local custodian will follow the procedure bilaterally agreed
with their customers.
The common reference will be also an optional element. If a common reference is agreed between
the two investors then this can be included in the ISO 15022 instruction. This information, if
included, will automatically become matching criteria and must coincide with the reference
indicated by the counterparty. This criterion, if included in the transmission, will basically be the
first point of matching with the counterpart. If the common reference is matched, but further
8
discrepancies are found, MT 548’s will be sent to the participants advising of the discrepant data.
If no common reference is included in the transmission, discrepant information will have to be
retrieved from the MT 578’s sent by Iberclear.
To report about this information, the local custodian will follow the procedure bilaterally agreed
with their customers.
The common/cross reference can be included in the following sequence and field (please also see
examples below):
LINK SEQUENCE
:20C::COMM//XXXXXXXXX (up to 16 digits)
Having said the above, if a party chooses not to populate this field the following must be known:
¾ The counterpart’s instruction sent to Iberclear must also leave the field unpopulated, in order
for the instructions to match within the matching system.
¾ Should the counterpart’s instruction reflect the common reference, the instructions will not
match and to report about this situation the local custodian will follow the procedure
bilaterally agreed with their customers.
The loan initiation identification number assigned by Iberclear upon the constitution of the loan
will be mandatory matching criteria upon its return. That is to say, local participants will have to
provide the Iberclear’s reference of the loan that they are ordered to return. It must be made clear
that it will be the Spanish custodians who will send the mandatory Iberclear’s identification
number 1 to Iberclear on a stock loan return trade. However, in order for local participants to
locate Iberclear’s ID number in its books, the clients should send the Trade Reference Number
(TRN) of the original stock loan on the Stock Loan Return Instruction. As both Iberclear ID
Number and the clients’ original TRN are linked together in local participants’ system, Iberclear’s
ID Number will be released to the market.
It is important to take into account that this is an obligatory matching criterion and if both parties
do not release exactly the same details then the trade will not settle.
It is therefore strongly recommended that this original stock lending TRN reference number be
included in the return instruction. It is of extreme importance to note that if the original TRN
reference is quoted by one of the parties involved, then both must include it; otherwise, the trade
will not match in the market.
The original TRN reference number must be included in the following sequence and field:
LINK SEQUENCE
:20C::PREV//XXXXXXXXX
Linking loan return to loan initiation by means of :20C::SEME of the original.
OR / PLUS
1
Id number is composed of a 15-digit number containing the date of issuance that is assigned by Iberclear to each
individual new stock loan upon its settlement. It is the Spanish Custodians and CSD who keep track of these Id. Numbers
in their books.
9
As far as identical reference was also provided in the loan initiation under the same
qualifier.
If there is a discrepancy between the two Iberclear ID Numbers sent to SUC Securities Lending
matching system, the local custodian will receive the discrepancy from Iberclear if a cross
reference has been matched and will report to its customer according to the procedure bilaterally
agreed. If no common reference is included in the transmission, or it does not match, discrepant
information will have to be retrieved from the MT 578’s sent by Iberclear.
As a result of the above said, it is understood that each original instruction must be cancelled
individually, not in a block.
FOREWORD: It must be stated very clearly that Iberclear will grant the economical rights to the
owner of the securities at the time the event takes place. Any agreement on the contrary between
lender and borrower must be solved outside the system
The above matching procedure is also applied in the cases where there is a client merger/take-
over, where it is necessary to transfer all the open loans from one client’s account to another.
Stock Split
If a stock loan is subject to a split, Iberclear will automatically adjust the quantity of the open
stock loan reflecting the split, while the Iberclear ID Number will remain the same.
Spin-Off
This event is unusual in Spain. However, may it take place in the future, the procedure will be
similar to that of the right issues.
Rights Issues
The SUC Securities Lending matching system will not cause an effect on the current procedure of
stock loans subject to a rights issue. The stock originating from a rights issue should be delivered
10
by the borrower as a normal stock transfer, where a put-through will be needed to have the stock
registered under the lender’s name.

7 ADR settlement Instructions:
7.1 Foreword/scenario:
It is convenient to indicate to Spanish agent that the instruction involved is related to an ADR
operation; in some cases, this indication becomes essential for the instruction good end.
7.2 Requirement:
As from November 2003, the below codes should be used to identify that the settlement is
linked to an ADR operation:
a) When the underlying stock is aimed to be deposited with the ADR agent in Spain for ADR
issuance in the US:
Sequence E, SETDET:
- Field 22F::SETR//ISSU
b) When the underlying stock is aimed to be deposited with the ADR agent in the US for local
delivery in Spain through the Spanish agent:
Sequence E, SETDET:
- Field 22F::SETR//RELE

8 Contingent upon linkages:
8.1.1.1.1 Foreword/scenario:
The Spain NMPG complies to the global market practice on linkages. For more details, see
S&R Linkages Market Practice on www.smpg.info.
8.1.1.1.2 Requirement:
We indicate below the different possibilities to link instructions offered to clients making this
type of trades.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- In case none of the alternatives is used or they are used in the wrong way, the members of
the Spain NMPG cannot guaranty neither STP treatment of the linked trades or usage of
specific securities for the rest of linked instructions.
The members of the Spain NMPG will decline all kind of responsibilities in case all or some
of the linked instructions cannot be settled or are settled late due to the client’s non-
compliance with any of the alternatives stated below.
- When linked instructions are received, systems may automatically look for ALL linked
trades. This process is done during a maximum period of time, established by each member of
the Spain NMPG. In case any of the linked instructions is not found, ALL THE REST
received may be rejected and new instructions must be issued in that case.

9 Extension to Settlement Confirmation and Free of Payment
The set of common elements can also be used for settlement confirmation and free of
payment transaction with the following differences:
9.1.1.1.2 Confirms
The Settlement confirmation – whether it is a free of payment or an against payment
transaction – should contain the same elements as the original instruction
PLUS:
- The reference to the original settlement instruction that was received. This is done using
the Linkage Block and the qualifier 20C::RELA//16x
EXCEPT:
- The settlement date given in the confirmation is the effective settlement date (which
might differ from the instructed settlement date as stated in the instruction). This
translates in ISO 15022 messages by using the qualifier ESET rather than SETT as
qualifier for the date field 98a.
- The quantity of financial instrument in the confirmation is the effective settled quantity.
This translates in ISO 15022 messages by using the qualifier ESTT rather than SETT as
qualifier for the quantity of financial instrument field 36B.
- The settlement amount given in the confirmation is the effective settlement amount. This
translates in ISO 15022 messages by using the qualifier ESTT rather than SETT as
qualifier for the amount field 19A.
