Consensus is established when,

Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, an

The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard.

12、2003 Identical to ISO 6166:2001(E) ASC X9, Inc. 2003 All rights reserved vIntroduction With the rapid expansion of international securities business, there is a need for a universally applicable international securities identification number (ISIN). No worldwide numbering system existed at the time
13、of the publication of the first edition of this International Standard. Countries with highly developed securities business identify issues of securities by means of code numbers, which are without any significance outside the country concerned. Securities of the same issue, in other words, are iden
14、tified by means of different numbers in the country where they are physically held and/or booked. As a result, the national numbers cannot be applied in cross-border transactions. Because of its strong rationalization effect, an internationally applicable numbering system substantially facilitates a
15、nd supports international securities business. Such a system is provided by this International Standard. In preparing this International Standard, care has been taken to conserve the national systems to the maximum possible extent, not only because of the good routine and valuable experience collect
16、ed in this field, but also to facilitate the adoption of the system. Moreover, it is aimed at creating a system which is easy to apply internationally and at establishing an information network which ensures that the required information can be obtained worldwide immediately.

17、al to ISO 6166:2001(E) ASC X9, Inc. 2003 All rights reserved 1Securities and related financial instruments International securities identification numbering system (ISIN) 1 Scope This International Standard provides a uniform structure for international securities identification numbers (ISINs). It
18、is intended for use in any application in the trading and administration of securities and other financial instruments. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. For dated r
19、eferences, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated
20、 references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of ISO and IEC maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. ISO 3166 (all parts), Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivisions. ISO 4217, Codes for the representation
21、 of currencies and funds. 3 Term and definition For the purposes of this International Standard, the following term and definition applies. 3.1 ISIN international securities identification number code which uniquely identifies a specific security or other financial instrument 4 Principles The ISIN s
22、hall consists of: a) a prefix which is the alpha-2 country-code specified in ISO 3166; b) the basic number, which is nine characters (letters and/or digits) in length. Where the existing national number consists of nine characters, this number shall be used; where the existing national number consis
23、ts of fewer than nine characters, this also shall be used, but zeros shall be inserted in front of the national number. Where a national check digit exists, it shall be regarded as part of the basic number within the nine characters; ANS X9.101:2003 Identical to ISO 6166:2001(E) 2 ASC X9, Inc. 2003
24、All rights reservedc) a check digit, computed using the modulus 10 “Double-Add Double“ formula as described in annex A. 5 ISIN allocation 5.1 Countries where a numbering agency exists For countries where a numbering agency exists, the responsible agency shall allocate the ISIN following the principl
25、es of clause 4 and in accordance with the competence described in annex B. 5.2 Countries where no numbering agency exists For countries where no national numbering agency exists, the designated substitute agency shall allocate an ISIN. An ISIN allocated by a substitute agency shall be prefixed in ac
26、cordance with clause 4. 5.3 Existing ISINs and existing securities without ISINs All existing ISINs assigned in accordance with previous editions of this International Standard shall remain unchanged. However, the allocation of ISINs for existing securities and financial instruments without ISINs sh
27、all be based on the most recent edition. 5.4 Application for ISIN An application (see annex C) for allocation of an ISIN may be submitted to the relevant numbering agency or where applicable to the substitute agency. For existing issues, any professional in the security business may apply. It is rec
28、ommended that the lead manager/issuer apply for allocation of the ISIN prior to the launching of a new issue. The numbering agencies will allocate ISINs in a timely manner in order to meet market needs. When an ISIN cannot be obtained according to 5.1 or 5.2, the matter should be resolved according
29、to rules defined by the registration authority. 5.5 Exchange of information In order to ensure that information is readily available worldwide, the agencies as mentioned shall exchange information among themselves concerning ISINs. 6 Registration authority In accordance with the provision of annex N
30、 of Part 1 of the ISO/IEC Directives, the ISO Council has designated the Association of National Numbering Agencies (ANNA scrl) as the registration authority for this International Standard.

35、mprising the products obtained in step 2 and each of the unaffected digits in the original number. d) Step 4 Subtract the total obtained in step 3 from the next higher number ending in 0 this is the equivalent of calculating the “tens complement“ of the low order digit (unit digit) of the total. If
36、the total obtained in step 3 is a number ending in zero (30, 40, etc.), the check digit is 0. EXAMPLES W.R.
