Each year, since 1999, the league table of the most active primary dealers in French government securities (SVTs) is published. This league table was modified in July 2003, in accordance with the principles defined in the new charter. Under this charter, the assessment of SVT activity now takes into account all aspects of their role: participation in auctions and, with a smaller weighting, presence in the secondary market, as well as the qualitative characteristics of their commercial relationship with AFT. In particular, the qualitative aspects include the results of the survey carried out among holders of French government securities commissioned by the AFT, made public on October 31, 2005.
