EUROPE: ESMA list of shares admitted to trading on EU Regulated Markets for EU short selling.

Thursday September 2 2010

The MiFID implementing Regulation (No 1287/2006, of 10 August 2006) requires the relevant competent authorities to calculate and publish a set of information regarding all shares which are admitted to trading on a regulated market.

ESMA has collected this information, and publishes it in the form of a database. The information included in this database allows market participants to recognise liquid shares (which trigger the obligations for systematic internalisers according to Article 27) and to determine the block sizes for waivers from pre-trade transparency requirements and delayed post-trade publication.
