The European Securities and Markets Authority has published a revised list of EU sovereign debt thresholds under EU Short Selling Regulation for the notification of net short positions in sovereign debt, effective 1 February 2014.

The reporting thresholds are monetary amounts fixed by applying the percentage thresholds to the outstanding sovereign debt of the sovereign issuer. They are revised and updated quarterly to reflect changes in the total amount of outstanding sovereign debt of each sovereign issuer.
