Regulatory Compliance - MiFID

Address the challenges of MiFID.

Solutions from Thomson Reuters help you to provide best execution, meet your transparency obligations and consolidate a fragmented data market. 

MiFID Services include:

Best execution

  • Thomson Reuters Global TCA - Uses a comprehensive tick database to calculate cross venue benchmarks relevant to a firm’s individual orders and executions.
  • Equity Market Share Reporter - Provides an overview of the participation in a single stock or groups of stocks, of competing exchanges and Multilateral Trading Facilities (MTFs), including dark pools, and puts these into context with the OTC reported trades.
  • Reuters DataScope Tick History - Provides underlying market data on a hosted basis for proving best execution.

 

Data consolidation

  • The Thomson Reuters  '.xbo' RIC code delivers real time best bid & offer and all published trades from all order book driven trading venues.
  • The Thomson Reuters '.xt' RIC code delivers all published trades from all trading and reporting venues on a streaming delayed basis.
  • The Consolidated Order Book model in Reuters 3000 Xtra delivers a customized view of top of book and depth of book pricing across trading venues of the users choice.
  • Reuters Tick Capture Engine gives you on-site ownership of every tick of real-time data flowing through your organization.

Thomson Reuters has a number of solutions for market data consolidation on the desktop and for both pre and post trade analysis. More information on these is provided below and on the other tabs of this site.

We would like to better tailor these to the needs of clients. Therefore, through October we will be consulting with market participants to clarify their consolidation needs and workflow with the aim of establishing a set of standards to which we will ultimately tailor our solutions. It is our intention to publish these standards so that they can be shared across data and solution vendors. We would welcome as wide an input as possible. To participate please email us at mifid@reuters.com.

Download monthly summaries on a per market and index basis

The spreadsheets below provide monthly reports at a summarised level by markets and index constituents in Pan European Equities. These show the market share in terms of all trades published across the different European exchanges and other reporting venues.


The Monthly Equity Market Share reports are sourced from our Equity Market Share Reporter. Both the Volume and Turnover data are calculated based on each individual trade reported by all European Exchanges, MTFs, and OTC trade reporting venues. We separately identify the trading volumes of the Independent Dark Pools where these are reported through OTC Trade publication services such as Markit BOAT through reference to specific flags on these feeds or from specific trade flags on the feeds from the MTFs that provide their own feeds.

The definition of country in the country reports is based on the domicile of the stocks included through reference to the two character country code at the beginning of each ISIN.

Turnover is normalised to Euros at trade level using currnency spot rates from the date of trade.

In November we decided to enhance the reports to break out the data into separate sheets for Turnover & Volume per country and index. Within each sheet we now break out the data into the following trade types and provide a summary of the activity by each trade type at the bottom of the sheet

  1. Order Book - trades generated by trading on electronic open limit order book excluding trades executed during an auction period
  2. Auction Trades - trades executed during an auction period operated by electronic open limit order book
  3. Dark Order Book - trades generated by a dark pool of liquidity or through the interaction of purely dark order on an open limit order book
  4. Off Order Book - trades reported under the rules of an exchange which may be as a result of trading on quotes from market makers or just OTC trades reported under the rules of a regulated market or MTFs.
  5. MiFID OTC - trades reported through pure reporting venues like Markit BOAT or the equivalent services offered as off-exchange reporting by the exchanges such as Euronext or Nasdaq OMX.

This enhancement should provide even greater insight to the trading activity across all European Equity Markets.

The Equity Market Share Reporter in addition provides:

  • analysis of the trading liquidity of any stock for which trades have been published by any of the comprehensive list of Exchanges, MTFs, Dark Pools & OTC reporting venues covered, and
  • easy downloading of the data into Excel and the capture of related graphs as image files for onward distribution.
