Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) as the Instrument to Decrease Securities Transaction Risk

Anna Pyka



Abstract

At present derivatives are the basic instruments to decrease the market risk which banks/investment companies and their corporate clients bear. Although these instruments protect their users against risk, they sometimes create additional risk. One of the methods of decreasing the transaction risk is the implementation of the markets in financial instruments directive (MiFID) by banks/investment companies. The main reason of implementing these regulations is the obligation to inform client about the character of the instruments and the risks involved, so that the client can carry out operations that fulfil with their investment expectations. The aim of this article is to show the role of prudential standards in derivative transactions by banks, in particular the markets in financial instruments directive and its meaning to banks/investment companies and their clients.(original abstract)
