Payment and reporting
Annual fees are invoiced by BSE at the beginning of the calendar year in a lump sum, or in two 6-month installments, subject to the decision of the vendor.
The invoicing of the monthly fees is based on the reports sent by the vendor. The reporting template recommended by the BSE can be downloaded also from the BSE website.
