ESMA has carefully considered the need to extend the intervention measures currently in effect. ESMA considers that a significant investor protection concern related to the offer of CFDs to retail clients continues to exist. It has therefore agreed to renew the measures from 1 May 2019 on the same terms as the previous renewal decision that started to apply on 1 February 2019.
ESMA intends to adopt the renewal measure in the official languages of the EU in the coming weeks, following which ESMA will publish an official notice on its website. The measure will then be published in the Official Journal of the EU and will start to apply from 1 May 2019 for a period of three months.
