On March 1, 2016, the European Commission adopted a Delegated
Regulation, in the form of Regulatory Technical Standards,
detailing the content of the financial instrument reference data
that must be supplied to regulators. The adopted RTS will be made
under the Markets Abuse Regulation and Markets in Financial
Instruments Regulation. They establish requirements for regulated
entities to provide instrument reference data to regulators, which
are then transmitted by regulators to the ESMA. The adopted RTS
details which financial instruments are to be included as part of
the reported instrument reference data. The adopted RTS also
outlines ESMA's responsibility to review, assess, consolidate
and publish the data on its website using automated processes. This
adopted RTS will apply from July 3, 2016.
