Evolution and Divergence (25 August 2021): Markets in the EU and UK - Commodities

The first episode in a new RT Plus mini-series, Evolution and Divergence: Markets in the EU and UK, is available now to stream and download. This podcast is the first in a series of five podcasts covering the changing nature of markets in Europe and also the degree to which this results in divergence with the UK regime. The series will cover equities, trading venues, systematic internalisers, and bonds and derivatives. The series begins however, with a look at commodities.

Hannah Meakin and Anna Carrier will discuss scope, the ancillary activities test and also position limits, as they compare what is being proposed by the Treasury in the UK with what is currently being legislated in the EU by way of the MiFID review.
