FIA EPTA response to the ESMA MiFIR Review Consultation on the Draft RTS on Reasonable Commercial Basis
As high-volume consumers of a variety of wholesale market data products, our members support regulatory efforts to bring more transparency to market data pricing and fairness to commercial practices. We welcome ESMA’s efforts to strengthen this framework through the proposals set out in the consultation paper and draft RTS. In order for these proposals to be effective in practice, supervisory convergence is essential particularly regarding scrutiny of data providers’ approach to implementing the fees, costs and margin provisions. Adequate supervision and enforcement of this RTS across all NCAs is also essential for it to be effective.
