MiFID II: Systematic Internalizers Panicked by FIRDS Data
By Lizzie Meager
July 5, 2018, Practice Insight from IFLR
Banks that have opted in to becoming a systematic internalizer (SI) under MiFID II are worried that the poor quality of data so far will impede future policy decisions, with a knock-on effect on market structure.
From September 1 onwards banks will be obliged to become SIs whether they want to or not, based on their European market share in any asset class. They’re currently waiting on the market data from ESMA that will allow them to make the calculation of their share. Without consolidated tape or a golden source of SIs, that may be difficult.
