(15)With the aim of strengthening competition and limiting the scope for conflicts of interest in the CRA sector, Regulation (EU) No 462/2013 introduces a requirement in Annex I, Section E, Subsection II of Regulation (EC) No 1060/2009 that fees charged by CRAs for credit ratings and ancillary services should be non-discriminatory and based on actual costs. It requires CRAs disclose certain financial information. The Canadian legal and supervisory framework contains no systematic requirements for CRAs to provide pricing policies to either the supervisor or the rated entities, although the supervisor may request this information in case of investigation. Furthermore, there is no requirement that fees charged to clients are to be cost based and non-discriminatory.
