The Markets in Financial Services Regulation and Directive (MiFID II) is part of the wider European Financial Services Action Plan. The main aim of creating a single market for financial services is to establish a stable, competitive and transparent financial services framework across the European Union.
MiFID II/MiFIR which came into effect on 3 January 2018, is a new legislative framework which aims to strengthen investor protection and improve the functioning of financial markets making them more efficient, resilient and transparent. MiFID II and MiFIR introduced new provisions to enhance controls around the prevention of market abuse and to increase transparency in markets.
Investment firms which execute transactions in financial instruments must report complete and accurate details of these transactions to the relevant competent authority under Article 26(1) of MiFIR. The current Transaction Reporting regime, as introduced under the Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation (MiFIR), built substantially on the previous Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) regime by increasing the number and types of instruments in scope, tripling the number of data fields required and increasing the level of complexity.
