13.III.3.5 Technical accessibility

MiFID II provides requirements to ensure that the MiFID II equity post-trade data as consolidated by CTPs is technically accessible. MiFID II requires CTPs to efficiently and consistently disseminate the equity post-trade data in a way that ensures fast access to the information.1 Fast access can be achieved where the equity post-trade data is easily available through technology (automated processes). MiFID II mandates CTPs to make equity post-trade information public in a machine readable-way.2 A MiFIR Delegated Regulation provides the MiFID II-criteria for machine-readability. Similar requirements are in place for APAs (and RMs and MTFs) (see paragraphs 1.4 and 2.3 above).3
