ESMA publishes its 2014 work programme

The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has published its 2014 work
programme which sets out ESMA’s main priorities and clarifies how they will
be delivered.  The work programme covers the Single Rulebook, ESMA's
contribution to financial stability, financial consumer protection, convergence
and ESMA's operational set up.

This includes increasing ESMA’s supervisory powers over credit rating agencies and trade repositories and also in respect of the revision of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) and the Market Abuse Directive (MAD) includes:

  • guidelines on harmonised transaction reporting;
  • preparatory work on technical standards on position limits and reporting; and
  • transaction reporting technical standards for Q4 2014.

ESMA will also monitor and analyse data reported under the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive and provide guidelines on exchange traded derivatives trade reporting.
