CESR publishes today, on behalf of its Members, a database listing identification codes for Regulated Markets, Multilateral Trading Facilities (MTFs) or other Central Counterparties. The market participants will need to use the information provided in this list in their transaction reports in order to indicate the counterparty to the transaction. The information is presented through three databases – one database for each type of counterparty (Regulated Market, MTF or Central Counterparty respectively). The publication of identifiers for Regulated Markets, MTF and Central Counterparties implements the obligation of CESR to make a public a consolidated list of all regulated markets and multilateral trading facilities or other central counterparties, as set out in Article 13 (2) of the MiFID Level 2 regulation (EC/1287/2006).
Further information is set out in the Press Release.
The databases can be accessed through the MiFID Level 3 page, or via the following link.
