MiFID II/MiFIR: Regulatory Reporting Solution (RRS) Release 1.4: Information for Trading Participants outside the scope of MiFIR

Eurex Circular 105/24 MiFID II/MiFIR: Regulatory Reporting Solution (RRS) Release 1.4: Information for Trading Participants outside the scope of MiFIR

1. Introduction

With this circular, Eurex Deutschland informs about the RRS Release 1.4, affecting all Trading Participants outside the scope of MiFIR regulation ("Non-MiFIR Trading Participants"). With the introduction of RRS Release 1.4 effective 18 November 2024, RRS will be compatible with the changes resulting from the initiatives introduced with the T7 Release 13.0.

Simulation start: 28 October 2024
Production start: 18 November 2024

Further information about the RRS Release 1.4 can be found on the Eurex website www.eurex.com under the following link: Support > Initiatives & Releases > Readiness for projects > Regulatory Reporting Solution 1.4 for non-MiFIR firms.

2. Required action

Non-MiFIR Trading Participants are requested to initiate the preparatory steps to ensure readiness for the RRS Release 1.4 on 18 November 2024, if necessary. Recommended testing scenarios will be provided in the “Simulation Participation guide” which will be available before Simulation start on the website mentioned above. 

3. Details of the initiative 

A. Availability of simulation environment

A dedicated release simulation environment will be provided to give non-MiFiR Trading Participants the opportunity to perform comprehensive testing of their trading applications, independent of the RRS production environment. The simulation environment will be available for testing from 28 October 2024 until further notice. 

B. Overview of functional enhancements

The introduction of RRS Release 1.4 ensures compatibility with the new Short Code and Algo ID solution.

With T7 Release 13.0, an enhanced registration and maintenance process for Short Code and Algo IDs will be introduced (see Eurex Circular 063/23). The introduction of RRS Release 1.4 will ensure that validly registered Short Codes and Algo IDs are submitted to RRS as part of the transaction report creation process for non-MiFIR Trading Participants.

The known limitations list for RRS Release 1.4 is available on the Eurex website under the following path: Support > Initiatives & Releases > Readiness for projects > Regulatory Reporting Solution 1.4 for non-MiFIR firms.
