EFAMA has today published its European Quarterly Statistical Release for Q3 of 2022.
This Release presents for the first time data on the net sales and net assets of SFDR Article 8 and 9 UCITS.
EFAMA members are paying close attention to the ongoing discussions in the European Parliament and Council to reach a compromise on the MiFID review. Together with a broad majority of market participants, including the sell-side and alternative trading venues, we have consistently made the case for a real-time tape for equities with the inclusion of pre and post-trade data.
Following in the footsteps of the European Parliament earlier this month, the Council of the EU has now finalised the legislative process by adopting the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), a move which is very much welcomed by EFAMA. This comes days after the first set of European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), which give life to the double materiality principle established by the CSRD, were finalised by EFRAG and submitted to the European Commission for adoption.
EFAMA spoke with its own Bernard Delbecque, Senior Director of Economics & Research, for the publication of the 8th issue of the "3 Questions 2" (3Q2) series, on rethinking our pension system sustainability and adequacy.

Following the EFAMA's partial response to the European Commission's targeted consultation on the regime applicable to the use of benchmarks administered in a third country, we would like to make additional comments on the ongoing review of the regime.
In our response to ESMA on its review of the guidelines on stress-testing parameters for Money Market Funds (MMFs), EFAMA cautions against using overly simplistic assumptions.
In a letter to policymakers, 18 European buy-side firms state that only an Equities/ETFs tape that delivers data in real-time and that includes pre-trade data in the form of 5 layers of best bid and offer, will meet with the necessary market demand to make the Equities/ETFs Consolidated Tape commercially viable. A reasonably priced tape is also a precondition for success, they argue.
EFAMA comments the European Commission's ViDA Proposal and welcomes the consistency of the proposal and the fact that VAT-exempt services will not be covered by the new DDR. With this solution, the proposal should allow tax authorities to focus on the real risk of tax fraud cases and should not create new burdensome procedures/compliance obligations that would represent new costs that in the end would be imposed on clients/consumers (e.g.
