ELM 4.1 Application
The effect of ELM 1.1.1 R to ELM 1.1.3 R is that:
- (1)
this chapter applies to ELMIs;
- (2)
this chapter, except ELM 4.3, applies to a bank or building society that is an e-money firm;
- (3)
no part of this chapter applies to:
- (a)
an incoming EEA firm; or
- (b)
- (a)
In the case of an overseas firm, ELM 4.4 applies only in relation to e-money issued from an establishment maintained by the firm in the United Kingdom.
Except in the case set out in ELM 4.1.2 R, the rules in this chapter apply on a worldwide basis.
Thus for example an ELMI cannot carry on any activity prohibited by ELM 4.3.1 R anywhere in the world.
