Michel Barnier, the European Commissioner for Internal Market and Services, welcomed the agreement in principle reached on 14 January 2014 by the European Parliament and the Council on updated rules for markets in financial instruments (MiFID II). These new rules will improve the way capital markets function to the benefit of the real economy. They are a key step towards establishing a safer, more open and more responsible financial system and restoring investor confidence in the wake of the financial crisis. The Commission would, however, have preferred a more ambitious implementation period. |
