- Form CL - form and validation form (amendment)
- Form BT definitions (information)
1. Reporting of business denominated in Maltese liri and Cypriot pounds (effective end-January 2008 reporting)
On 1 January 2008 Malta and Cyprus adopted the euro as their official currency. From that date, reporting institutions should report all business previously denominated in Maltese liri and Cypriot pounds in the euro boxes of all statistical returns. Business denominated in Maltese liri and Cypriot pounds has so far been reported in the “other currencies” boxes of these returns.
If reporting institutions have difficulty complying with this for end-January 2008 reporting, they should contact the Help Desk on 020 7601 5360.
2. Form CL - form and validation form (amendment)
An error has been found within Form CL, Section A (Supplementary Items); a row for Cambodia and Cameroon should have been included.
Both the form and validation form have been updated and are available to download from the link below. If you have any queries relating to Form CL, please contact Nick Butt (Tel. 020 7601 5573).

Some minor amendments have been made to the definitions for Form BT. These are only drafting changes, clarifying the treatment of long and short positions in investments, Item 32, and updating some cross references in the text. They are not intended to create any changes to the way the Form is reported, although reporting institutions are encouraged to check that their methods are consistent with the updated definitions.
Amended definitions are available to download from the link below. If you have any queries relating to these definitions, please contact the Help Desk on 020 7601 5360.
