Circular letter (only in French)

It concerns the 2027 general promotion round for the Order of the Oak Crown and the Order of Merit of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and is published only in French. For compliance and company secretariat teams, the practical implication is procedural: if your institution intends to put forward candidates for national recognition, internal nomination files and supporting justifications will need to be gathered and submitted through the channel and timing the CSSF indicates. There is no change to supervisory expectations, capital treatment, reporting obligations, or client-facing requirements, and no remediation work arises from this communication.

Recommended action is to route the letter to the company secretary or HR/executive office, confirm whether the firm wishes to participate in the 2027 cycle, and diarise the submission window so nominations are not missed. Firms that do not participate need take no further steps. Given the absence of prudential content, boards and risk committees may treat this as information only and should not divert compliance resource to it.

Monitor the CSSF site for any accompanying French-language annexes setting out nomination forms or cut-off dates, as those details are not reproduced in the English listing.
