About the Session
As Europe prepares for the next phase of Market Integration Package (MIP) reporting reforms and CP25/3 resets the FCA’s agenda in 2026, supervisors and firms face the same problem from different angles. Costs and complexity for 15 billion transaction reports pa have risen, and yet supervisors still struggle to obtain timely, consistent data for effective risk analysis.
This panel will explore MiFIR transaction reporting as a test case for FCA and ESMA’s burden reduction and data strategies. It will examine how a runbook architecture, grounded in the Common Domain Model (CDM) and Digital Regulatory Reporting (DRR), can help move from fragmented national regimes to a more coherent, reusable framework.
Rather than treating MiFIR as a divergent ruleset, this session will look at how regulators, market infrastructures and firms can co-design a MiFIR runbook that reduces burden, strengthens convergence and provides a pathway for wider EU reporting reforms.
