What is the Cost Basis Reporting Service?

The Cost Basis Reporting Service (CBRS) is an automated system from the DTC that gives financial firms the ability to transfer customer cost basis information from one firm to another on any asset transfer. After a firm transfers an asset to a counterparty, it can use CBRS to send the asset’s cost basis information to the receiving firm or send corrected cost basis information, if necessary.
