Central Securities Depository Of IRAN

 

Introduction

The integrated portal for the Iranian capital market stakeholders (DDN) has been developed by Central Securities Depository of Iran to provide a range of electronic services for the Iranian capital market participants including investors, issuers, and market regulatory bodies, in a unique platform.

The platform effectively eliminates in-person referrals of those investors already registered in CIGS, CSDI’s e-KYC system, by providing them access to various information and operational services. 

Prior to this platform, CSDI services were only accessible through in-person referrals or correspondence; however, since 2019, with the advent of the DDN portal, CSDI's electronic services have become available for all Iranian market players. 

The platform offers services through three different sections of the Investors’ Electronic Portal (DARA), Issuers’ Electronic Portal (DANA), and Supervisors’ Electronic portal (NAZER) that each is introduced in the following.
