2 MiFID II COMPLIANCE2 MiFID II COMPLIANCE

The Markets in Financial Instruments Directive, MiFID II, will take effect on

3 January 2018. Speed and quality of data will determine the winners and

losers. MiFID II will command significant changes in business and operating

models, systems, the data you use and retain, your people, and your processes.

Your partners and the solutions you choose can give you an advantage.

Since the adoption of MiFID I in 2007 (and long before) Thomson Reuters

has been a market leader in providing expertise, guidance and solutions to

financial firms so they not only comply, but do so in a way that is streamlined,

efficient and integrated.

Thomson Reuters and our partners have the content, technology and

expertise to help you cross the line into the new world of MiFID II

compliance and beyond.

Visit mifidii.com for the latest news and information.

“ MiFID II represents one of the most fundamental and

far reaching regulations that the industry is addressing.

Its effect is not just in the European Union, its ripples will

reach far out into the global financial industry, impacting all

financial organisations that deal with the European markets.”

John Mason, Head of Regulatory Content Propositions,

7 MiFID II COMPLIANCE 7

When trading through a recognized venue in a

transparency eligible product, the platform will

manage the necessary publication of quotes and

trades. However, when dealing directly with clients

or other firms, this responsibility potentially falls to

the liquidity provider to publish a quote, but to either

one or other of the counterparties when it comes

to publishing the details of the trade itself.

Visibility of other dealers’ quotes and trades, whether

from trading venues or OTC data provided via the

Approved Publication Arrangements (APAs), will

help with price discovery. Traders and sales desks

will need to build strategies for using this data to price

products, based on visible market activity and how the

competition will react to their firms’ own visible quotes.

Quotes can remain private in certain instances,

depending on the quote size. It adds a new strategic

dimension to both buy- and sell-side as you decide

when to select quote sizes above and below

transparency size thresholds. Managing requests

for quote (RFQ) and responses, balancing size,

timeliness of execution, choice of participants in

the process and risk of market impact will be new

competitive weapons.

In order to successfully navigate this new

environment, sales desks and traders will need to

have access to the broadest and most up-to-date

real-time market data. This needs to be available

on both the desktop and within their firms’ pricing

tools for streamed-pricing, quoting and price

benchmarking tools. 

We are committed to bringing complete transparency

to the market through sourcing all pre-trade and post-

trade data. These will be sourced from Systematic

Internalisers (SIs), APAs, and trading venues.

We will bring them together via Thomson Reuters

Elektron Real Time feeds or displayed on the 

Thomson Reuters Eikon desktop. These provide

you with the most comprehensive, aggregated views

on MiFID II compliant trade activity. The complete

market view in one location.

Thomson Reuters DataScope Select will also

provide access to key MiFID II related instrument

data, allowing the sales and trading desks to make

fully informed pricing decisions. This includes MiFID

II liquidity status and the various threshold size limits

that determine the transparency obligations of each

individual quote provided.

As with our MiFID I service, our instrument reference

data will be mirrored on the real-time feeds and Eikon

desktops, in line with client consumption needs.

Thomson Reuters offers fully transparent reference

data, enhanced transparency and brings a vast

body of data into line to help you achieve full

compliance with MiFID II market structure rules.

9 MiFID II COMPLIANCE

Under MiFID II Thomson Reuters will operate

FXall QuickTrade*, our independent electronic

foreign exchange trading platform, as a Multilateral

Trading Facility (MTF), along with Forwards

Matching which is operated as an MTF today.

As an MTF, Thomson Reuters is obligated to report

all trades made on the MTF publicly, we will publish

to the Tradeweb APA to meet this obligation.

Additionally, Thomson Reuters is building out new

reporting solutions for post-trade and transaction

reporting and developing new risk controls (pre-

and post-trade) to help our clients meet their

algo trading requirements. We are also upgrading

graphical user interfaces (GUI) and application

programming interfaces (API) to accommodate

new data fields, and providing new straight through

processing (STP) feeds to provide new data fields

to trade parties for their own reporting and record

keeping requirements.

With increasing regulatory and market conduct

requirements for FX professionals – including

banks, alternative market makers, asset managers,

hedge funds and corporates – access to trusted

solutions is more critical than ever to achieve and

maintain success.

More than 5,000 buy- and sell-side professional FX

market participants trust Thomson Reuters award-

winning transaction platforms to trade over

$350 billion in average daily volume.

Thomson Reuters, in partnership with the foreign

exchange analytics specialist BestX, will enable

buy-side participants using Thomson Reuters

FXall and FX Trading to streamline analysis of

transaction costs, helping them define, achieve

and demonstrate best execution. We will offer

seamless connectivity from the Thomson Reuters

FXall and FX Trading desktops to the independent

transaction cost analysis (TCA) service from our

partner BestX.

Thomson Reuters has the breadth of experience

and existing infrastructure necessary to support

the changing market place under MiFID II.

10 MiFID II COMPLIANCE

SI DETERMINATION

Under the new MiFID II regulations, investment

firms are required to determine whether they trade

on a frequent, systematic and substantial basis

in order to identify whether they are a Systematic

Internaliser (SI) or not. These firms will make this

decision based on whether their activity exceeds

certain thresholds.

Investment firms can be confident whether they

will exceed these thresholds (and become an SI)

by leveraging the Thomson Reuters market

data network.

Firstly, investment firms can estimate the total

market size in near real time for both equity and

non-equity markets through Thomson Reuters

aggregated market data. Thomson Reuters is able

to collect the total number and volume of trades

in the EU from trading venues and Approved

Publication Arrangements (APAs). Instrument

definitions are aligned with the SI threshold criteria.

Secondly, Thomson Reuters will carry ‘official’ total

market size information published by regulators.

Thomson Reuters will distribute this data through

our existing channels, for example Thomson

Reuters DataScope Select, Thomson Reuters

Eikon and Thomson ONE desktops, and feeds.

The extension of the SI regime to non-

equities markets and the introduction

of quantitative thresholds have put this

obligation at the heart of many sell-side

firms MiFID II compliance programmes.

Thirdly, Thomson Reuters Systematic Internaliser

Determination Platform dashboards have been

designed to help investment firms determine

whether they meet regulatory requirements for

trading as an SI. The display takes trading data

from that investment firm, cross-asset, and

compares this to total market size data to conduct

the frequent and systematic as well as substantial

tests. The SI Determination Platform dashboard

provides Traders and Compliance Offers with

insight into their current market participation

in line with MiFID II regulations.

Thomson Reuters enables investment firms not

only to comply with the systematic internaliser

regime, but to thrive in the new MiFID II world.

12 MiFID II COMPLIANCE

Consequently there is a need for organizations

to be able to publish that data in an efficient

and timely manner. Ideally this could be

done by utilizing an existing infrastructure

capability rather than require something new

and so Thomson Reuters has enhanced its

market leading Thomson Reuters Enterprise

Platform (TREP) to be able to capture the

necessary quote and trade data and publish

that data to the designated APA of choice.

MiFID II mandates that market players,

trading platform providers and related

parties must publish pre- and post-trade

data and report all applicable transactions

to regulators and APAs in accordance with

prescribed timelines.

MiFID II brings a whole new set of market

data publication requirements to both trading

venues and investment firms. MiFID I

pre- and post-trade publication requirements

started with all European equities listed on EU

regulated markets. As MiFID II transparency

requirements move into the OTC space, there

is a huge increase in instrument coverage,

both in number and asset type. Inevitably,

the challenges are around what needs to be

published, when and by whom. With such

a profound change to the amount of data

available to the market, there are bound to

be impacts.

To successfully navigate this new

environment, sales desks and traders will

need access to both up-to-date, real-time

market data and comprehensive instrument

reference data. Thomson Reuters is

committed to bringing together as many of

the new data sources as practical, whether

new systematic internaliser (SI) quotes, OTC

quotes and trade reports from APAs, new

trading venues or just new transparency data

from existing markets.

Due to the light that MiFID II shines onto previously unlit markets the

ability to publish pre- & post-trade data via an Approved Publication

Arrangement (APA) is essential.

We will also provide access to a pre- and post-trade

publication service for bonds, structured finance

products, derivatives and emission allowances. The

APA (in partnership with Tradeweb) will be designed to

ease publication by incorporating deferral and waiver

rules into the platform. This will ensure only appropriate

quotes and trades are published at the right time.

MiFID II requires SIs to demonstrate clear transparency

for their own-account trading. This enables investors

to know that they benefit from execution that equals or

betters that available from public venues.

Thomson Reuters provides the key data infrastructure

and analytics to support transparency through our line

of unrivalled solutions.

14 MiFID II COMPLIANCE

REFERENCE DATA

MiFID II mandates that non-equity instruments move onto

exchange where suitable. Market participants will have a

complete overview of the entire non-equity trading lifecycle

and adopt suitable risk models to ensure they are mitigating

their risk exposure, and obtaining the best value across the

trading and investment cycle. A key ability to ensure this is

possible, is the aggregation of market and reference data.

In the new FICC environment under MiFID II, many of the

inter-dealer and dealer-to-client platforms will have to formalize

their status, either as a Multilateral Trading Facility (MTF)

or an Organized Trading Facility (OTF) and as such, will have

to publish trade data in a consistent manner.

Whilst these platforms are not essentially new, the availability,

type and volume of data will change and increase. A good

example of this will be the granularity of time-stamp data

against order and execution data. Trading venues can

include regulated markets, Multilateral Trading Facilities,

and Organized Trading Facilities.

Thomson Reuters is the largest aggregator of financial

data drawn from these venues.

“ Reference data really forms the cornerstone of MiFID II data

reporting and a number of workflows and decisions that firms

will have to undertake. Accurate instrument reference data will

be required by trading venues and SIs to report through to the

regulators. Having inaccuracy on these financial instruments

may have impacts on the prices and actually understanding what

those instruments are on the trading platform.”

Thomson Reuters has unrivalled expertise in normalizing data.

We use unique identifiers and apply an open message model

to manage and integrate multiple data sources. We then

distribute data via Thomson Reuters Elektron in real time,

Thomson Reuters DataScope for intraday and tick data

and Thomson Reuters Eikon for desktops and apps.

MiFID II increases the need for accurate and comprehensive

reference data. Firms need to know more about what

instruments are allowed to be traded; about the specific

products within those instruments; about the rules that

apply; and, finally, about the parties who may buy them.

Many buy-side firms require access to extensive reference

data on the instruments they trade, to determine what

needs to be reported and to generate the data points.

Thomson Reuters is the world’s largest provider of financial

reference data.

Demand for better oversight of the financial markets has meant

that the scope of transaction reporting has increased, both in the

instruments that are covered and the amount of information required

in each report. The scope for reporting will now extend to any financial

instrument which has traded or been admitted to trading on a trading

venue (and not just the Regulated Markets as dictated by MiFID I);

which has had a request for admission to trade on a trading venue;

or which has an underlying instrument or basket/index of instruments

traded on a trading venue.

17MiFID II COMPLIANCE

A pre-requisite of transaction reporting is record

keeping, bringing together a record of every order,

execution and transaction event.

To comply with MiFiD II reporting rules, many

buy-side firms will need access to extensive

reference data on the instruments they trade,

both to determine what needs to be reported

and to generate the data points.  

Investment firms must report transactions in any

MiFID II financial instruments to their local regulator

or approved reporting mechanism (ARM) no later

than the close of the following working day.

Under MiFID II each individual transaction report can

contain up to 65 fields, including new flags, detailing

particular trade types in certain instruments; specific

details of participants, including the Legal Entity

Identifier (LEI code) of counterparties, funds and

individual accounts; and, raising privacy concerns,

significant additional personal details (National ID/

passport numbers) of the individual persons involved

in both the investment and execution decision.

Thomson Reuters provides indicators to

identify which instruments require transaction

reporting. Thomson Reuters DataScope Select

continues to be the primary service for instrument

reference and pricing data, much of this information

will also be included within Thomson Reuters

Elektron Real Time data feeds and available

in Thomson Reuters Eikon.

Thomson Reuters also provides a transactional store

using Thomson Reuters Velocity Analytics,

and, from this stage, also the data required for

transaction analysis.

In addition, using standard or custom analytics,

combined with Thomson Reuters Elektron Real

Time or Tick History data, you can provide benchmark

analytics for proving other typical business analytics,

such as RFQ hit rates.   

Thomson Reuters is the world’s number one

provider of financial reference data and well

positioned to help you easily access and integrate

these regulatory data points.

INVESTOR PROTECTION

Under MiFID II, financial institutions must act in

the best interest of their client, and it is therefore

paramount for firms to have a deep understanding

of who is distributing the financial products

they manufacture.

MiFID II requires that firms improve attention

paid to product design, provide complete and

clear information about investments, suitability

assessment of products recommended to clients,

protect investor assets and fair and efficient

treatment of investor complaints. This means

that clients would require product suitability

classifications to differentiate between complex

and non-complex products and MiFID II asset

classification data to comply with product design

and suitability assessment.

Thomson Reuters DataScope Select, our pricing

and reference data service, will be updated

with new fields. These will identify which new

instruments and products fall under the scope

of MiFID II, their classification using industry

standards such as Classification of Financial

Instrument (CFI) Codes, as well as indicators that

provide information about product complexity

and any MiFIR venue trading mandates and EMIR

clearing mandates as they come into force.

Where bundled investment products are sold to

investors, there needs to be clear transparency as

to how products are made up. Firms need to ensure

that bundled products are appropriate and must

also disclose whether investors could obtain better

prices for individual products if they were sold

separately. Costs, fees and commissions and any

non-monetary benefits paid to intermediaries must

also be itemized and declared.

18 MiFID II COMPLIANCE

Under MiFID II, financial institutions must act in the best interests

of their clients. Firms must have a deep understanding of who is distributing

the financial products they manufacture. This underlines the responsibilities

of buy-side and sell-side firms.

Firms must declare if the investment advice

that they give is independent. And whether

it is based on a sufficiently wide view of

the market as a whole or a restricted one.

Furthermore, firms must acknowledge if the

products they advise on are developed by

entities that are related to them.

In addition to this, Thomson Reuters

Regulatory Change Management workflow

solutions enable firms to stay abreast of new

regulatory moves. We enable you to adopt a

robust regulatory change framework because

MiFID II is likely to herald further investor

protection initiatives.

MiFID II extends the requirements of best

execution across all asset classes whilst at the

same time establishing a greater number of

venues to aggregate. Thomson Reuters is

uniquely positioned to address both elements

of this equation by being the market leader in

aggregated data as well as providing a best

execution solution, Thomson Reuters Velocity

Analytics. With its ability to absorb both real-time,

reference, tick-history and client data, Velocity

Analytics enables organisations to address the

three fundamentals of best execution, reporting,

monitoring and controlling.

MiFID II requires execution venues as well as

market makers and SIs to publish execution reports

as stipulated by the Regulatory Technical Standard

(RTS) 27. In addition, buy-side Investment Firms

must also publish execution reports under the RTS

28 standard. Thomson Reuters Velocity Analytics

supports the production of both of these reports.

Additional monitoring capability across the

extended asset classes is also supported, bringing

traditional equities Transaction Cost Analysis (TCA)

to a new set of instruments.

Thomson Reuters Velocity Analytics also allows

companies to apply the necessary controls such

as policy effectiveness, calibration and case

management ensuring their best execution policies

are adhered to and remain effective.

Are you ready to be a leader in offering

compliant, best execution products and services

in this new world?

Thomson Reuters can show you the way.

23 MiFID II COMPLIANCE 23MiFID II COMPLIANCE

MiFID II introduces a new regulatory regime for firms

that engage in algorithmic and/or high frequency

trading (HFT). In general, under MiFID II, firms

carrying out algorithmic trading (including HFT)

and trading venues allowing or enabling algorithmic

trading will have to have in place specific effective

systems, procedures and arrangements to ensure

resilience and capacity. This includes testing and

monitoring, as well as business continuity plans

and mechanisms to control trading.

Tick History delivers unmanipulated global trade

and order book quote messages, microsecond

time-stamped data back to 1996. These cover

more than 45 million global, cross-asset OTC and

exchange-traded instruments worldwide. Tick History

enables market makers and prop trading firms

who algorithmically quote and trade, to accurately

reconstruct the order book and replay the market.

These can be applied for the purposes of

back-testing algos and stress testing against volatile

or fast market conditions, both pre-deployment

(conformance testing) and post-deployment, as part

of required annual validation requirements.

MiFID II defines a high-frequency trader as one

sending at least two messages per second, for

a single instrument on any trading venue, or at

least four messages per second in respect to all

instruments being traded on a venue. This goes

further than any previous regulation and more firms

will need to register their HFT activities.

Compliance will mean storing detailed time series

records of algorithmic trade history for at least five

years. These records must include all fields outlined

in Annex III of regulatory technical standard (RTS) 6.

That is, 28 fields for each decision to buy or sell and

35 fields for each outgoing and executed order.

That’s a lot of information and high quality data

access, storage and retrieval are vital to achieving

the required level of MiFID II compliance.

Thomson Reuters offers the ability to back-test

trading algorithms in a pre- and post-trade testing

environment. We provide unparalleled access

to global historical tick data. This is recorded from

Thomson Reuters real-time feeds covering both OTC

and exchange traded instruments, across more than

500 trading venues as well as third party contributed

data. Thomson Reuters DataScope Select will carry

all relevant flags and reference data for meeting

the requirements of RTS 6.

For HFT traders, meeting MiFID II’s tough

requirements on transaction reporting will be a

necessity from January 2018. Uniquely, our modular

tools and industry-leading reference data mean that

HFT trading organizations can shape their trading

platforms to meet their specific requirements.

Partnering with Thomson Reuters opens the way

to meeting these requirements and continuing

to stay competitive in the MiFID II environment.
