ESMA - Report on the Quality and Use of Data

ESMA published the fifth edition of its Report on the Quality and Use of Data. The report reveals how the regulatory data collected has been used by authorities in the EU and provides insight on actions taken to ensure data quality. The document presents concrete cases on data use ranging from market monitoring to supervision, enforcement and policy making. A recent example includes how ESMA reutilises existing data to support reporting burden reduction (i.e. use of MIFIR transaction data to perform the transparency and volume cap calculations).
