Address the challenges of MiFID.
Solutions from Thomson Reuters help you to provide best execution, meet your transparency obligations and consolidate a fragmented data market.
MiFID Services include:
Best execution
- Thomson Reuters Global TCA - Uses a comprehensive tick database to calculate cross venue benchmarks relevant to a firm’s individual orders and executions.
- Equity Market Share Reporter - Provides an overview of the participation in a single stock or groups of stocks, of competing exchanges and Multilateral Trading Facilities (MTFs), including dark pools, and puts these into context with the OTC reported trades.
- Reuters DataScope Tick History - Provides underlying market data on a hosted basis for proving best execution.
Data consolidation
- The Thomson Reuters '.xbo' RIC code delivers real time best bid & offer and all published trades from all order book driven trading venues.
- The Thomson Reuters '.xt' RIC code delivers all published trades from all trading and reporting venues on a streaming delayed basis.
- The Consolidated Order Book model in Reuters 3000 Xtra delivers a customized view of top of book and depth of book pricing across trading venues of the users choice.
- Reuters Tick Capture Engine gives you on-site ownership of every tick of real-time data flowing through your organization.
Thomson Reuters has a number of solutions for market data consolidation on the desktop and for both pre and post trade analysis. More information on these is provided below and on the other tabs of this site.
We would like to better tailor these to the needs of clients. Therefore, through October we will be consulting with market participants to clarify their consolidation needs and workflow with the aim of establishing a set of standards to which we will ultimately tailor our solutions. It is our intention to publish these standards so that they can be shared across data and solution vendors. We would welcome as wide an input as possible. To participate please email us at mifid@reuters.com.

Download monthly summaries on a per market and index basis
The spreadsheets below provide monthly reports at a summarised level by markets and index constituents in Pan European Equities. These show the market share in terms of all trades published across the different European exchanges and other reporting venues.
From March 2009 the Monthly Equity Market Share reports are being sourced from our recently launched Equity Market Share Reporter. Both the Volume and Turnover data are now calculated based on each individual trade reported by all European Exchanges, MTFs, and OTC trade reporting venues rather than the accumulated volume figures for each stock as published by the Exchanges. Trades reported after trade-date are now reflected in these statistics. We are also able to separately identify the trading volumes of the Independent Dark Pools.
The report most recently published spreadsheet for January to July 2009 reflects separate values for all trades published through MiFID trade publication services with the venue name and " - OTC". This reflects feedback to the data published last month requesting that these trades be split out from the totals per venue for trade executed on those venues or reported under the rules of those venues.
This classification of OTC trades differs from that previously used where only trades on the exchanges' MiFID trade reporting services were categorised as OTC. However in our recent review and categorisation of trades into our seven standard trade classifications it was clear that for a number of exchanges including the LSE and NASDAQ OMX, that trades published through their MiFID reporting services in stocks traded on their exchange, trades were included in their main feed with trade flags to identify them as such. As a consequence the totals for OTC trades in the January to July 2009 is higher than previously identified.
The Equity Market Share Reporter in addition provides:
- data broken down into more granular trade types such as Transparent Order Book, Dark Order Book, On-Exchange Reported & Off-Exchange (OTC), and
- analysis of the trading liquidity of any stock for which trades have been published by any of the comprehensive list of Exchanges, MTFs, Dark Pools & OTC reporting venues covered, and
- easy downloading of the data into Excel.
