This new system allows CDs to be generated, executed, and stored electronically in a secure digital vault, reducing the need for physical certificates and associated operational concerns like transport disruptions. The approved rule aims to improve efficiency by streamlining the process, enhancing legal clarity, and reducing risks associated with physical handling. Additionally, the DTC plans to make technical updates, such as clarifying terminology and updating obsolete system references.
