Specifications for Spanish MSN

The actual text of the MSN will be in Spanish. Approved language translations for the
Spanish MSN are supplied in the Spanish exhibits, 3.1 - 3.17. Spanish translations of
MSN content are usually 25% longer than the equivalent English text. However, when
translation is done from English, translators are encouraged to make them as concise as
possible.

The link goes to the issuing authority’s own document — the one we read to produce this record. Where a source publishes whole titles rather than sections, your browser may need a moment to jump to the provision.
Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
