Article 2 Resources dedicated to complaints-handling
Summary What does Article 2 of the RTS on CASP complaints handling say?
This article establishes the internal resourcing and accountability requirements for complaints handling.
It requires crypto-asset service providers to dedicate adequate resources to managing complaints, ensures those resources have access to all relevant information, and creates a direct reporting line to the management body.
The reference to Article 8 data in the reporting obligation ties this article to the broader complaints monitoring framework set out later in the regulation.
Important points:
- Dedicate adequate resources to complaints management and ensure those resources have access to all relevant information.
- The person leading those dedicated resources must report directly to the management body on the implementation and effectiveness of complaints handling procedures.
- This reporting must include the data referred to in Article 8, as well as any measures taken or to be taken in response to complaints analysis.
