ECMI newsletter 04-2007

25 September 2007

ECMI issued its latest newsletter which includes two articles on the MiFID Directive. In a Policy Brief on “Suitability and Appropriateness under MiFID”, Alessandra Chirico sheds light on the implications of the MiFID conduct of business rules both upon investment firms and investors.

 

In a Commentary on “MiFID Revolution or Delayed Execution”, CEPS Chief Executive Karel Lannoo reports findings of huge diversity. While acknowledging that their implementation poses fundamental challenges for exchanges and financial services providers, he warns that failure to adapt to the strategic implications of MiFID in the coming months may mean gradual extinction for the actors involved.
