On 31 March 2022, the CSSF confirmed that Circular 21/769 on
"Governance and security requirements for supervised entities
to perform tasks or activities through Telework"
("Telework Circular") will apply as
from 1 July 2022 in view of the government's recent
announcements removing the majority of the health restrictions
adopted in the context of COVID-19. The Telework Circular was
issued on 9 April 2021 with an effective date initially scheduled
for 30 September 2021 but its entry into force was postponed due to
the pandemic situation.
The Telework Circular sets out governance and security
requirements with respect to the implementation and use by entities
under the CSSF's supervision of work processes based on
telework solutions. Its purpose is to promote a sound and prudent
management contributing to the proper organisation of these
entities and the preservation of information security by specifying
the requirements they have to comply with. For more details,
