After months of discussions, the European Commission has officially released the draft level 1 text of the new Market in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) and Regulation (MiFIR) on October 20th. This legislative action is bound to ignite sweeping changes in European financial markets. An ECMI lunch-time seminar will bring regulators, experts and market participants to discuss the details of the legislative proposal and its impact on markets. Market structure and transparency are key aspects, which will strongly interact with other upcoming regulations such as EMIR (European Market Infrastructure Regulation). This research seminar will provide an up to date overview of the text and experts’ opinions on where the most relevant issues ultimately reside.
Participation in this event is free of charge for ECMI and CEPS members. ICMA members are also admitted for free. Non-members may be admitted for €50, paid in cash at registration. A sandwich lunch (€6) will be served before the meeting. Registration will open at 12:30 CET.
