Explanation, written by a model and checked against the cited text

Article 36b is a wholly new provision setting out periodic penalty payments, empowering ESMA's Board of Supervisors to impose such payments by decision to compel compliance with earlier decisions on infringements, information requests, investigations, or on-site inspections.

It further specifies that the payment must be effective and proportionate, imposed daily until compliance, calculated at 3% of average daily turnover (or 2% of average daily income for natural persons) from a date stated in the imposing decision, and limited to a maximum period of six months after notification.
