This Practice Note provides an overview of the provisions for non-discriminatory access to central counterparties (CCPs), trading venues and benchmarks in Regulation (EU) 600/2014 (EU MiFIR), as amended by Regulation (EU) 2024/791 (the MiFIR Review). It includes a summary of the level 1 legislation, as well as relevant level 2 rules and level 3 guidance. Regulatory background EU MiFIR and the recast Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (Directive 2014/65/EU) (EU MiFID II) replaced the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (Directive 2004/39/EC), which already gave investment firms the right of non-discriminatory access to CCP, clearing and settlement systems in other Member States. This right was retained in MiFID II. The MiFIR access provisions were intended to encourage competition and address the ‘vertical silo’ model—where trading, clearing and settlement all take place within the same infrastructure. In order to avoid discrimination, CCPs are required to clear transactions executed on different trading venues, and trading venues must make their data feeds available to different CCPs on a transparent and non-discriminatory basis.
