Ref | Product | Change | Affected feature | Client Description | Issue key |
1 | Accuracy: EMIR | New Validation | E184 – Product Identification (2.6) corresponds to a product that is not a derivative | We have developed a new EMIR validation flagging instruments out of scope of EMIR reporting requirements. | TRD-1006 |
2 | Accuracy: EMIR | Fix: Validation | E80b – New Trade ID position (2.12) valued later than T+1 | We have amended the validation to avoid false flagging for a reporting case specific to one of the TRs. | TRD-1012 |
3 | Accuracy: EMIR | Fix: Validation | E60 – Notional (2.20) != Quantity x Price Multiplier x Price | We have updated the validation to flag for CFDs and SpreadBets identified via the CFI code or Contract type (previously only flagging if both fields indicated the same product type). | TRD-1026 |
4 | Accuracy: EMIR | Definitions | Emir Definition: is_equivalent_market, impacting validations: E41, E49, E93b, E180, E112, E113, E114, E116, EMIR MI: Confirmation | We have updated all validations and MIs executed using the ‘Equivalent markets’ reference data to now perfom checks as per the list state from the trading date. This impacts mostly clients preparing backreporting, or validating old files. | TRD-1010 |
5 | Accuracy: EMIR | Portal Configuration | Delegated Reporting | We have introduced a new configuration option for EMIR reports – clients who report on behalf of their clients, or who review the data reported for them by their counterparties can choose if they want to include these in the TR Accuracy reports. | TRD-908 |

11 | Accuracy: MiFIR | New Validation | M189a – Investment Firm covered by Directive 2014/65/EU (5) = true does not match regulator’s reference data – pre-Brexit EEA firm, M189b – Investment Firm covered by Directive 2014/65/EU (5) = true does not match regulator’s reference data – EU firm, M189c – Investment Firm covered by Directive 2014/65/EU (5)= true does not match regulator’s reference data – GB firm |
