In just a week’s time, an all-star line-up will meet at the London Stock Exchange for the inaugural event in The TRADE’s Mifid II Review Roadshow series, kicking off a string of events hosted across Europe’s leading stock exchanges.
The debut London event, already almost fully subscribed, will drill down into the parallels (and differences) between the UK and EU approach, and explore the latest progress with regards to the Wholesale Market Review as well as key issues around the upcoming regulatory updates and what they might mean for the market.
Claudia Trauffler, head of capital markets at HM Treasury, opens the day with an update on the latest UK regulatory approach; followed by a further address from Stephen Hanks, manager, markets policy at the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
The first panel, focusing on regulatory divergence between the UK and EU, is moderated by Anish Puaar of Rosenblatt Securities, who will be joined by Matthew Coupe, co-chair of the FIX EMEA Regional Committee and director of market structure EMEA at Barclays, along with Tom Stenhouse, securities trading head of product at Turquoise, and Virginie Saade, head of government and regulatory policy Europe at Citadel Securities.
