Markets in Financial
Instruments Directive (MiFID)
DIRECTIVE 2004/39/EC
Article 30
Post-trade transparency requirements for MTFs
1. Member States shall, at least, require that investment firms
and market operators operating an MTF make public the price,
volume and time of the transactions executed under its systems in
respect of shares which are admitted to trading on a regulated
market.
Member States shall require that details of all such transactions
be made public, on a reasonable commercial basis, as close to
real-time as possible.
This requirement shall not apply to details of trades executed on
an MTF that are made public under the systems of a regulated
market.
2. Member States shall provide that the competent authority may
authorise investment firms or market operators operating an MTF to
provide for deferred publication of the details of transactions
based on their type or size.
In particular, the competent authorities may authorise the
deferred publication in respect of transactions that are large in
scale compared with the normal market size for that share or that
class of shares.
Member States shall require MTFs to obtain the competent
authority's prior approval to proposed arrangements for deferred
trade-publication, and shall require that these arrangements be
clearly disclosed to market participants and the investing public.
3. In order to provide for the efficient and orderly functioning
of financial markets, and to ensure the uniform application of
paragraphs 1 and 2, the Commission shall, in accordance with the
procedure referred to in Article 64(2) adopt implementing
measures in respect of:
(a) the scope and content of the information to be made available
to the public;
(b) the conditions under which investment firms or market
operators operating an MTF may provide for deferred publication of
trades and the criteria to be applied when deciding the
transactions for which, due to their size or the type of share
involved, deferred publication is allowed.
Except where justified by the specific nature of the MTF, the
content of these implementing measures shall be equal to that of
the implementing measures provided for in Article 45 for regulated
markets.
