[null,"Introduction\nThis gap analysis template (template) is provided by the Global FX Committee and is available for use by Market Participants seeking to adopt the FX Global Code (Code). This template is available for use 'as is' or can be amended at a Market Participant's own discretion to fit its setup - each Market Participant should determine in what manner it seeks to use this template. \n\nThe purpose of the template is to facilitate Market Participants undertaking gap analyses between the principles in the Code and their own policies, processes and practices. The template provides a starting point for this process and can also be used as an internal project management tool to facilitate communication among business areas engaged in this project. The template is intended for Market Participants' internal use and consequently downloading, using or completing the template does not require reporting or submission to the GFXC.\n\nMarket Participants that have completed their gap analyses and consider that it has taken appropriate steps, based on the size and complexity of its FX activities, and the nature of its engagement in the FX market, to align its activities with the principles of the Code, are encouraged to sign and publish the Statement of Commitment to the Code.\n\nThe template is modelled for the FX Global Code version August 2018 and contains macros. For any discrepancy or difference that may arise between the content of the template and the FX Global Code, please refer to the FX Global Code.\n\nStructure\nThe gap analysis template has three sets of 'tabs'. \n\nGrey tabs contain a Glossary from the Code, Coverage of the type of institutions that would generally be expected to be in scope of the Code and a Documents tab which lists internal documents relevant to the Code that the Market Participant may refer to as part of its gap analysis exercise. \n\nGreen tabs contain a Project timeline and a Summary tab. \nIn the Project Timeline the Market Participant may insert the various tasks that the Market Participant plans to undertake to complete the gap analysis (for example be setting up project group, reviewing the Code, seeking internal approval etc.). Each task is joined by fields for status of task, planned start date, intended duration, scheduled final date and a progress bar. The chart above the table shows the progress of the tasks outlined in the table. \nIn the Summary tab, all principles in the Code are listed. For each principle, there are columns where the Market Participant can list:\n   (a) whether the principle is applicable to their FX activities,\n   (b) which business area is responsible, \n   (c) the Market Participant's status (whether the Market Participant is already adhering or is in the process of adhering to the principle),\n   (d) the progress for the Market Participant to become adherent, \n   (e) deadline, and \n   (f) other comments. \n\nAll business areas engaged in the gap analysis project can be listed in the Summary tab column J. Please find a guide on how to use the Summary tab in the Guide tab.\n\nBlue tabs provide a breakdown per each principle where the Market Participant can detail applicability and adherence. Within applicability and adherence the Market Participant can provide rationale and proportionality considerations, as well as outline the Market Participant's practices, other relevant comments and references to internal documentations. If a principle is considered \"not applicable\" in the Summary tab, the corresponding blue tab for the principle is marked grey.\n\nDisclaimer\nNeither the GFXC, any local foreign exchange committee, nor any of their respective members institutions or agents, nor any entity involved in the preparation of material, including but not limited to the GFXC Secretariat and the Markets Committee at the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), warrant, nor accept any responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness of any information collated using this template.\nUse of this template is subject to the Terms and Conditions of the GFXC's website, which are available at https://www.globalfxc.org/toc.htm.\n"]
