NASDAQ OMX Nordic: Identification of Natural Persons from the United Kingdom after December 31, 2020 (Brexit)

As a consequence of the United Kingdom (UK) exiting the European Union (EU) on  
 December 31, 2020 (Brexit), natural persons from the UK should be identified as
 third country natural persons with regards to the obligation of Trading        
 Participants to properly provide the data to be supplied under Directive       
 2014/65 EU and Regulation 600/2014.                                            
Natural persons from the UK have been identified by means of the National IDs   
 "National Insurance Number" (first priority) or by "CONCAT" (second priority)  
 (Art. 6 para. 2 of the Commission Delegated Regulation 2017/590). As of 1      
 January 2021, UK nationals must be identified in accordance with the           
 requirements for natural persons from third countries. Therefore the "passport 
 number" (first priority) or "CONCAT" (second priority) must be used.           
These changes are relevant for Nasdaq Nordic Trading Participants for the       
 following purposes:  -- Identification of "client", "Investment decision within
 firm" and      "execution within firm" on orders for all of Nasdaq's European  
 trading      venues.    -- Identification of "buyer identification code",      
 "buyer decision maker code",      "seller identification code", "seller        
 decision maker code", "Investment      decision within firm" and "execution    
 within firm" on Transaction Reports      submitted by Nasdaq Nordic on behalf  
 of third country members.                                                      
Trading Participants are required to update its short/long code mappings for UK
