Topic What Who Types of services

Product intervention MiFIR gives EU and national regulators new powers to temporarily or permanently prohibit or restrict the marketing, distribution or sale of certain financial instruments and structured deposits, financial activities and practices in case of significant investor protection concern or a threat to financial stability or the orderly functioning and integrity of markets (and subject to a number of legal conditions to be fulfilled). Retail clients Professional clients Eligible counterparties Portfolio Management Investment advice (with agreement) Ad-hoc investment advice Execution only MiFID II introduces a new market structure framework which closes loopholes and ensures that trading, wherever appropriate, takes place on regulated platforms and on a level playing field. In particular, MiFID II introduces two types of trading obligations for different financial instrument classes:

  • shares in the future have to be traded on a MiFID II multilateral venue or

via a so-called systematic internaliser, except for a limited set of irregular or technical trades; and

  • derivatives which are eligible for clearing under the European Markets

Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) and pass a liquidity test have to be traded

  • n one of the MiFID II multilateral venues only. This will move trading in

these instruments onto well regulated platforms. MiFID II introduces a new multilateral trading venue, the Organised Trading Facility (OTF), for non-equity instruments to trade on organised multilateral trading platforms.
