Frequently Asked Questions on Capital Markets & Securities Regulations
What key reforms were introduced by the MiFIR review?
The MiFIR review established an EU-wide consolidated tape for market data (equities and bonds), banned payment for order flow (PFOF) across Member States, and revised pre- and post-trade transparency thresholds and derivatives trading obligations.
What is EMIR 3.0 and how does it affect EU clearing obligations?
EMIR 3.0 revises Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 by introducing an active account requirement for clearing certain Euro-denominated derivatives at EU-based central counterparties (CCPs), strengthening the EU's clearing capacity and reducing reliance on third-country CCPs post-Brexit.
How does the EU Listing Act simplify access to capital markets for SMEs?
The EU Listing Act package amends the Prospectus Regulation, MAR, and MiFID II to lighten the prospectus requirements for secondary issuances, allow multiple-vote share structures for growth company IPOs, and reverse research unbundling rules to improve SME analyst coverage.
