ESMA asks the European Commission to clarify ancillary activity test under MiFID II


Default: Change to:


ESMA's Maijoor wrote a letter to the Commission Vice-President Dombrovskis regarding the exemption from authorisation as investment firm which non-financial entities are eligible for when their commodity derivative trading activity is ancillary to their main business as set out in MiFID II.


ESMA invites the Commission to provide further guidance on how the ancillary activity criteria set out in Article 2(4) of MiFID II, and further specified in RTS 20, are to be interpreted and implemented, and more specifically at which level the ancillary tests should be performed.
