Commission Implementing Regulation on implementing technical standards on the timing, format and template of notifications to regulators by trading venues of financial instruments was published in the Official Journal of the European Union. In accordance with Market Abuse Regulations trading venues are required to notify regulators daily with information relating to the trade of financial instruments. The ITS required trading venues to report to their national regulators on the financial instruments which were subject to a request for admission to trading or admitted to trading or traded on the trading venue and set out, in accordance with the MAR, the required format and details of trading activity that must be provided. The information required for example, for the trade of Derivatives, includes the expiry date, price multiplier and underlying issuer. The full list of requirements are contained in the Annex to the ITS. It is intended that the related reporting obligations under the Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation will align with the obligations under these ITS. The ITS will apply from July 3, 2016.
