On the eve of its 25th anniversary, the Central Securities Depository is pleased to share an important event: the General Meeting of ANNA members was held on June 18, 2020, (Frankfurt, Germany), at which the Central Securities Depository's application for full membership status was considered. As an outcome of the General Meeting, Resolution No. 2020/1.6 was adopted, according to which the application of the RUE “Republican Central Securities Depository” was approved and the Central Securities Depository received the status of a full member of ANNA.

As of June 1, 2020, ANNA has 97 full members and 19 partners - organizations from 123 countries of the world.
Each year, the number of partners and members of ANNA is increasing as new National Numbering Agencies join in, aiming at the integration of their national financial markets into the international space and the unification of transactions with financial instruments through the application of common international standards.
