MiFID II BACKGROUNDWHAT IS MiFID II?

In 2007 the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive

(MiFID) came into force focusing on the operation of

European equity markets.

Its objective was to increase integration and efficiency of

markets through the establishment of a harmonised

regulatory framework across the European Union (EU).

In 2010 the European Commission (EC) started a process to

review and update MiFID seeking to increase market stability

and confidence whilst also bolstering consumer protections.

WHAT ARE THE KEY OBJECTIVES?

The key objectives of the updated directive (MiFID II) and the

accompanying regulation (MiFIR) are:

• To ensure the fair, effective and safe operation of

financial markets.

• To address shortcomings in the initial MiFID framework.

• To expand the scope of MiFID into non-equity products.

• To enforce conduct of business rules for financial

service intermediaries.

• To form part Europe’s post-crisis response to the 2009

G20 commitment to reform markets.

WHO IS AFFECTED?

The updated directive applies to a broader range of financial industry players

providing investment services including:

• Investment Banks

• Portfolio Managers

• Brokers

• Market Makers 2

The Level 1 legislation set an enforcement deadline for

MiFID II and MiFIR of 3rd January 2017.

In September 2015, ESMA presented the final draft

Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) and Implementing

Technical Standards (ITS) to the EC for ratification within 3

months.

The final Delegated Acts under the Directive are still

outstanding and are widely expected to be published in early

2016.

In November 2015, ESMA and the EC proposed that the

deadline for MiFID II should be delayed by one year to

allow for:

• Clarification of the final rules from ESMA and the National

Competent Authorities (NCAs), and

• Increased time for the implementation of technological

solutions by the industry.

Bloomberg anticipates an amendment to Level 1 text will

be required to formalise the new timeline.

REFERENCE & MARKET DATA

Liquidity:

Instruments are subjected to differing transparency regimes depending upon their assessment of liquidity.

The less liquid the instrument is deemed to be, the less transparency it is subjected to. Illiquid bonds are not

subject to pre-trade reporting and all post-trade reporting is deferred.

Liquidity assessments for bonds and derivatives are performed using different taxonomies.

Bloomberg will collate, calculate and maintain the data used in transparency

determination

Taxonomy Stand For In Practice Applies To

Approach

Instruments are classified into

homogenous categories i.e. Sovereign

REFERENCE & MARKET DATA

Consolidated Market Size:

MiFIR defines Systematic Internalisers as:

“investment firms which, on an organised, frequent, systematic and substantial basis, deal on their own account by

executing client orders outside a trading venue”

Systematic Internaliser status is measured by the same taxonomy as liquidity, i.e. IBIA for bonds and COFIA for derivatives

Bloomberg will capture the official consolidated market size that is used as the denominator in the SI determination

calculation for every instrument

Bloomberg can capture a potential SI’s market activity to be used as the numerator in the same SI determination calculation

In addition Bloomberg will capture the output of significant Regulated Markets, trading platforms, APAs and potentially the

proprietary output of SIs to create consolidated composite market data

Bloomberg will collate, calculate and maintain the data used in transparency

MTF - ROUTING & EXECUTION

MiFID II defines Trading Venues

• MTFs exist under MiFID

• OTFs are a new entity introduced by MiFID II

• OTFs are distinguished from MTFs in that the OTF trading process may involve the use of discretionary rules

by the operator

• OTFs and MTFs must provide information to their NCA regarding rules, procedures, surveillance procedures

and membership

VENUE FULL NAME EXAMPLE

MTF Multilateral Trading Facility Trading platforms e.g. Bloomberg

OTF Organised Trading Facility Voice Brokers e.g. ICAP

MTF - ROUTING & EXECUTION

Regulation, Background and Impact

21

WHAT IS KNOWN

1. Certain IRS and CDS instruments will have to be traded

exclusively on regulated Trading Venues (MTF/OTF/RM)

2. Multilateral Systems must be regulated as Trading Venues hence

any instrument that is traded on a multilateral basis must be

executed on a Trading Venue

3. Derivatives executed on a Trading Venue are subject to:

• Pre-trade credit checks

• Tight timelines for clearing

WHAT ARE WE STILL WAITING FOR

The ‘Trading Obligation Procedure’. This is due to be released before

June 2016 and will list:

• The specific instruments that are required to be executed on

Trading Venues

• Treatment for trades that are Large in Scale and Package

Transactions

UNIVERSE OF PRODUCTS THAT MAY BE COVERED

ESMA will determine the products that must be executed on a Trading Venue

using the following criteria:

1. The product must be subject to the EMIR Clearing Mandate (see table)

2. It must be sufficiently liquid

3. It must be admitted to trading on at least one Trading Venue

PRODUCTS SUBJECT TO THE EMIR CLEARING MANDATE¹

• Individual trades are held and aggregated into a batch file to be sent to the FCA via Trading Solution’s ARM

• The ARM has 4 time slots to release scheduled batch files providing clients with many opportunities to amend and to resend.

• STATUS:

Queued: Trades are being held in the RGTY<GO> blotter

Pending: Trades transmitted but awaiting FCA response

Accepted or Rejected: Response received from FCA and reflected in the RGTY<GO> blotter

• Other RGTY<GO> Blotter Statuses

• Trading books and asset classes may be excluded from the reporting processes. Trades in such books and assets

will not appear in the RGTY<GO> blotter

• Trades for which the asset class is enabled but for which there is no exchange, appear in the RGTY<GO> blotter with a

status of “Not Requested”. You can manually report these trades

• Trades which do not have an ISIN, or the ISIN cannot be validated, appear in the RGTY<GO> blotter with a status of

“Rejected”. If you know the ISIN, you can manually amend enabling the trade/transaction to be resubmitted

BTCA - BEST EXECUTION

MiFID II Best Execution rules are more prescriptive than MiFID

An execution policy must be written to explain clearly, in sufficient detail and in a way that can be easily

understood by clients how orders will be executed by the firm for the client. Should include information

on different venues where investment firm executes its client orders and the factors affecting the choice

of execution venue.

Member States shall require that Investment Firms take all sufficient steps to obtain, when executing

orders, the best possible result for their clients taking into account price, costs, speed, likelihood of

execution and settlement, size, nature or any other consideration relevant to the execution of the order.

Investment Firms are required to publish, on an annual basis, information of the identity of top 5

execution venues or brokers and on the quality of execution against their stated policy.

27

BVAULT - RECORD KEEPING & TRADE RECONSTRUCTION

MiFID II requires firms to keep records in order to reconstruct trades with

a view to allowing effective surveillance of market conduct

Record Keeping • Records shall be kept of all services, activities and transactions undertaken by investment

firms to support enforcement actions under MiFID, MiFIR and MAD/MAR

• Records include all emails, IM, recording of telephone conversations, transactions and

documents (even if it doesn’t lead to a transaction)

• Records will be kept for a minimum of 5 years (up to 7 years where a regulator specifies)

in a manner so that they cannot be modified or deleted’ (compliance storage)

Trade Reconstruction • Firms are required to provide transparency into trade life cycle – they must have trades

and communications (incl. voice) ‘readily available’ and provided upon client’s and

regulator’s request

Surveillance • Firms must strengthen conduct of business rules

• Firms are required to increase monitoring and surveillance on marketing and distribution

activities for prohibited or restricted financial instruments

• The technical guidelines from ESMA require firms to integrate surveillance platforms for

trades and communications to increase market transparency

However, if the EU participant

EU manager will probably require off-shore

manager to show that they have:

1) Received from their executing brokers

and order execution policy;

2) Their executing brokers can demonstrate

that they are taking “sufficient steps” for best

execution. This may include supplying best

execution reports to show that they are

executing in their clients best interests.
