M2G 1.1A Transitional onshoring provisions

M2G 1.1A.1

1The effect of section 3 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 is that “direct EU legislation” became part of UK law, as at IP completion day (and is known as “retained EU law” in accordance with section 6 of the same legislation). As such, MiFIR and all directly applicable regulations made under MiFID and MiFIR, including the MiFID Org Regulation (Commission Delegated Regulation 2017/565), the MiFIR Delegated Regulation (Commission Delegated Regulation 2017/567) and technical standards became part of UK law, as at IP completion day.

M2G 1.1A.2

Each of these pieces of legislation is subject to the power in section 8 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 to deal with deficiencies arising out of the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the EU. The Treasury has exercised this power in the Markets in Financial Instruments (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018 (the ‘Exit Regulations’) to amend each of the following:

  1. ● MiFIR;

  2. ● MiFID Org Regulation;

  3. ● MiFIR Delegated Regulation;

  4. ● Data Reporting Services Regulations; and

  5. ● The Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Markets in Financial Instruments) Regulations 2017.

A reference to any of the above in the remaining text of this guide is to the legislation as amended by the Exit Regulations.
