Amendment 43 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 8
(8) A DLT multilateral trading facility should be a multilateral system, operated by an investment firm or a market operator authorised under Directive 2014/65/EU, that has received a specific permission under Regulation (EU) xx/20xx of the European Parliament and of the Council27 [Proposal for a regulation on a pilot regime on DLT market infrastructure]. DLT multilateral trading facilities should be subject to all the requirements applicable to a multilateral trading facility under that Directive, except if it were to be granted an exemption by its national competent authority in accordance with this Directive. One potential regulatory barrier to the development of a multilateral trading facility for transferable securities issued on a DLT could be the obligation of intermediation set out in Directive 2014/65/EU. A traditional multilateral trading facility can only admit as members and participants investment firms, credit institutions and other persons who have a sufficient level of trading ability and competence and who dispose of appropriate organisational arrangements and resources. A DLT multilateral trading facility should be allowed to request a derogation from such an obligation so that is can provide retail investors with easy access to the trading venue, provided that adequate safeguards are in place in terms of investor protection. _________________ 27 [full title] (OJ L […], […], p.
