  • EC consultation on commodity derivatives market

    26 February 2025
    The European Commission has published a targeted consultation document on a review of the functioning of commodity derivatives markets (including for these purposes emissions allowances) and certain aspects relating to spot energy markets. The outcome of this consultation will feed into the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive report with a view to making the EU commodity derivatives markets more efficient and resilient.

    The consultation seeks stakeholders' feedback on a broad range of issues, including: (i) data aspects relating to commodity derivatives; (ii) the ancillary activity exemption; (iii) position management and position reporting; (iv) position limits; (v) circuit breakers; and (vi) other elements stemming from the Draghi report on EU competitiveness. Responses must be submitted by 9 April.
