Each Contracting Party shall take the necessary measures to ensure the financial institutions do not disclose to the customer concerned or to other third persons that measures are being executed at the request of the requesting Contracting Party or that an investigation is under way, for such time as is necessary to avoid compromising the results.
Vsaka pogodbenica izvede potrebne ukrepe, s katerimi zagotovi, da finančne institucije zadevni stranki in tretjim ne razkrijejo, da se izvajajo ukrepi po zaprosilu pogodbenice prosilke ali da je v teku preiskava, dokler je to potrebno, da se ne ogrozi njihov rezultat.
