The programme reflects the shift in focus of ESMA’s work, from building the single rulebook, towards ensuring its consistent application across the European Union (EU), as outlined in its 2016-2020 Strategic Orientation. The key areas of focus under ESMA’s activities of supervisory convergence, assessing risks, single rulebook and direct supervision will be:
	- 
		Converging supervisory practices on the implementation of MiFIDII/MiFIR
 
	- 
		Focusing on data quality
 
	- 
		Level 2 work on the Benchmarks Regulation and on various initiatives under the umbrella of the Capital Markets Union
 
	- 
		Directly supervising credit rating agencies (CRA) and trade repositories (TR), with a particular focus on their ancillary activities given the trend of combining ancillary and core services.
