Depository" is generally (or historically) used to talk about central institutions (nearly utilities) that register the initial deposit of securities on request of the issuer. CSDs are most of the time local organisations built to accomodate the clearing and settlement needs of local traditional exchanges.
- "Custodian" describes a firm (generally banks) that holds securtities on behalf of trading firms.
