On May 18, 2020, ISDA and FIA submitted their joint response to the European Commission’s (EC) consultation on the review of Markets in Financial Instruments Directive/ Regulation (MIFID II/MIFIR) framework. In the response, ISDA and FIA outline their members’ views with respect to the possible emergence of a consolidated tape for derivatives, the calibration of transparency regimes, the revision of commodity derivatives position limits, open access (to clearing houses or to exchanges) and the derivatives trading obligation, among other issues.
As a reminder, the European Commission published its consultation paper on the review of the regulatory framework for investment firms and markets operators under the MiFID II/ MiFIR based requirements on February 17, 2020.
