The ISB Information Portal, funded by the European Union means, provides information services to the public as well as an easy and user-friendly access to the relevant information services to issuers, state authorities and the subjects delegated with their authority.

You have opened the Public Part of the ISB Portal. This part of the ISB Portal offers to you a number of information items that are freely available to all users with no registration required. Here you may obtain information about the ISB project, about the structure of the ISB project, about the manner of providing services as well as about the relating prices in case such services are in the category of those provided for remuneration.

Free Services in the Public Part of the ISB Portal provide information for surveying in the field or downloading (e.g., a list of booked issues of securities, a list of issuers, as well as other information items published by the CSD Prague from its own registers).

The Private Area of the Portal contains two categories of paid services, i.e., the services for the provision of which the customer is obligated to pay either the commercial price or recover the factual expenses for single services. The users of services available in this field of the ISB Portal send their requests into the ISB system through their internet scanners and secured communication by means of installed certificates. The first category of paid services involves General Information, which information may be obtained by any user registered as an ISB client. The second category of paid services involves Information for Selected Subjects such as notaries, executory staff or bailiffs, the Czech National Bank, Revenue Offices, etc. The availability of the information as above is limited for reasons of restrictions concerning the user profile, i.e., each user, or a group of users, shall only have access to defined information fields or to defined services contained in the mentioned category.

Further information on the ISB may be acquired through the option of Profile ISB. Also, we recommend to visiting the FAQ part where important answers can be found to some questions about how to work with the ISB.
