Current News

Soon the query profiles from wmView and wmProfile will be merged in the profile selection box. From now on, you can access the various search masks more easily and conveniently.

Did you already know...?

For licensing reasons, some GD/GV fields are not included in the detail display for the work area (G) master data in wmView.
Instead, such WM data fields are often integrated exclusively in the wmProfile query profile of Investment Fund Characteristics or Fund Classifications / AIF (previously Risk management II / AIF).

The Fund Classifications / AIF query profile contains data for the classification of investment funds according to AIFMD and for the reform of investment taxation 2018. For example, the WM fields:

• GD504D Applicable tax procedure as of 1 January 2018
• GD504K Investment funds with partial tax exemption as per section 20 of the investment tax law
• GV1D7 Rate of the tax free income as per fund type and investor group as per section 20 of the investment tax law, historical classification

This query profile will be explained in more detail soon.

On October 23, 2017 the 84. WM Release will become effective. We would like to inform you about some upcoming alterations beforehand and corresponding impacts in WMACCESS.

Depending on further regulatory developments another data field on the topic of US IRC Section 871(m) could be added by WM Datenservice to the 84th WM Release as part of the new Section J - Ongoing indicators.
For this purpose, we will set up a separate query profile in WMACCESS. Due to the proximity to securities master data, a query in this new query profile is classified into the query fee category T3.

New query profile Ongoing indicators (J)

• JV006 Delta/set by using an end of day delta

Update 01.09.2017:

According to our current information, the American regulation agency has in its Notice 2017-42 of 4 August 2017 extended the transitional provisions for the IRC Section 871(m) to the end of 2018. This means that the new filed JV006 will, for that reason, not be supplied until further notice.

Therefore, we will wait out for the setup of the query profile until further notice.

Frozen fields

No data fields, currently used in WMACCESS, will be frozen with this WM Release.

For many years we are supporting the encrypted access to the WMACCESS website via HTTPS as well as the safe login procedure parallel to the unencrypted HTTP communication.

The unencrypted transmission of sensitive information, such as the WMACCESS username and the associated password, will be deactivated as of 18.06.2017. HTTP will be automatically redirected to the encrypted connection.

In the first place this concerns the URLs for logging on and using the WMACCESS application to query WM data. On the login page of WMACCESS we will remove the unencrypted login option ("standard login procedure").

Test:

Successful: You are viewing this page through an HTTPS connection. Your browser is not affected by the announced action.

Problems using HTTPS?

Should you not be able to access the homepage and the WMACCESS web application due to technical restrictions with HTTPS, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Why do we perform this step only in the year 2017:

Unfortunately, very old browsers (such as Internet Explorer 6) or older operating systems (eg Windows XP) were used in the financial industry in the past few years. However, these browsers or operating systems only support older and unsafe protocols (SSLv2 / SSLv3) or do not provide support for modern secure cipher suites. Users of these platforms had to and so far could use the HTTP protocol.

Preview:

Starting from the 7th of August 2017, the entire Internet presence under our domain wmaccess.com will automatically and exclusively use HTTPS.

In March 2012, we had already made an improvement to the wmView detail display, in order to display the current issuer name (MD031) directly to the three WM fields GD240, GD241, GD245.

This has been implemented for two additional fields:

• MR030 Superordinate issuer number
• HD051 Issuer number of the controlling company

On February 20, 2017 the 82. WM Release will become effective. We would like to inform you about some upcoming alterations beforehand and corresponding impacts in WMACCESS.

The new WM fields in regards to the investment taxation 2018 will be created for the February 2017 Release, but will not come into effect before the 83rd Release on 26.06.2017

Update 17.01.2017:
Please note that many of the new GD fields are not displayed in the Securities master data query profile because of licensing restrictions. Rather, these data fields are to be found exclusively in the wmView query profile Risk Management II / AIF.
Two further fields exclusively in the wmProfile query profile Investment Fund Characteristics

Field descriptions as of 10.01.2017 are already available in wmGuide. Please note, that the English-language field descriptions are currently missing for most new data fields.
