DIRECTIVE 2004/39/EC
Article 28
Post-trade disclosure by investment firms
1. Member States shall, at least, require investment firms which,
either on own account or on behalf of clients, conclude
transactions in shares admitted to trading on a regulated market
outside a regulated market or MTF, to make public the volume and
price of those transactions and the time at which they were
concluded.
This information shall be made public as close to real-time as
possible, on a reasonable commercial basis, and in a manner which
is easily accessible to other market participants.
2. Member States shall require that the information which is made
public in accordance with paragraph 1 and the time-- limits within
which it is published comply with the requirements adopted
pursuant to Article 45.
Where the measures adopted pursuant to Article 45 provide for
deferred reporting for certain categories of transaction in
shares, this possibility shall apply mutatis mutandis to those
transactions when undertaken outside regulated markets or MTFs.
3. In order to ensure the transparent and orderly functioning of
markets and the uniform application of paragraph 1, the Commission
shall adopt, in accordance with the procedure referred to in
Article 64(2), implementing measures which:
(a) specify the means by which investment firms may comply with
their obligations under paragraph 1 including the following
possibilities:
(i) through the facilities of any regulated market which has
admitted the instrument in question to trading or through the
facilities of an MTF in which the share in
question is traded;
(ii) through the offices of a third party;
(iii) through proprietary arrangements;
(b) clarify the application of the obligation under paragraph 1 to
transactions involving the use of shares for collateral, lending
or other purposes where the exchange of shares is determined by
factors other than the current market valuation of the share.
