Amendment: Volume cap and transparency (Reg 2017/577)

This regulation updates the technical standards for reporting securities trades. It specifically adjusts the 'volume cap'—the threshold that determines when a trade is considered too large to be reported immediately—to ensure financial markets remain transparent and data is accurate.

This affects financial institutions, investment firms, and stock exchanges. It changes how they report trade volumes and provide information to regulators to prevent market manipulation and improve oversight.
