On 28th July 2020, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) updated theĀ list of third-country venuesĀ (TCTV) in the context of theĀ opinion on post-trade transparency under MiFIR, following new requests from the industry.

Following the publication of the opinion and the list of third-country venues in June 2020, ESMA has received requests from market participants to assess more venues against the criteria set out in the opinion. The review is now finalised and ESMA is publishing:

  • an updatedĀ annexĀ to the opinionĀ related to post-trade transparency, with the list of venues with a positive or partially positive assessment; and
  • additionalĀ guidanceĀ on the implementation of the list of TCTV venues.

For market participants to automatically process theĀ list of venues included in the annex of both the opinion on transparency and the opinion on position limits, ESMA published them in csv format.
