European Trade Reporting

As with all our Trading Services for MiFID securities we provide two options to meet the post-trade transparency obligations:

• on Exchange off book trade publication – for all trades regulated under the Exchange’s Rules; and
• OTC trade publication - for any unregulated trades executed away from the Exchange’s markets, whether acting as a Systematic Internaliser (SI) or not.

Buy side firms can use this service to report OTC trades. Non members can connect through our FIX Gateway service.
