MiFID II / MiFIR seminarPlanning your MiFID II / MiFIR ProjectHannah Meakin, PartnerNorton Rose Fulbright LLP15 October 2014
Macro themes in your MiFID II / MiFIR project
Macro theme 1: Strategic implications – group
reorganisation necessary due to changes in
exemptions and third country requirements?
Macro theme 3: Conduct of business – many small
amendments which add up to significant changes
including amendments to terms of business
Macro theme 2: Dealing effectively with the new markets requirements –
OTFs, algorithmic trading, position limits, increased
transparency etc
Macro theme 4: Creating a project team – the key
question is how you keep track of the mass of paper

First steps
Determiningthe impact and
who needs to be involved in your project
Is there anything you no longer want to do?Is there anything you need to delegate to another firm?Do you need to reorganise any business lines? e.g. conflicts restrictions on OTFs and SIs
Is there anything about your business that can’t work the way it does now? e.g. research third party payments client categorisation changes/
appropriateness DEA
Is there anything you do that will come into regulation in a new way?e.g. any exemptions you can no longer
rely on any new permissions needed services that require notification third country affiliates
Are there any brand new arrangements you’ll need?e.g. transparency – APAs market making and DEA
agreements market monitoring
What arrangements will you need to extend or upgrade? systems and controls e.g.
− algorithms policies and procedures e.g.
− transaction reporting− best execution
How will all of this need to be reflected in documentation?e.g. client facing – terms of business market facing - agreements internal – policies and procedures
5 MiFID II / MiFIR seminar
Key questions What is your business? Who are your clients? Who else do you rely on?
Angles to consider Your own perspective What your clients need How your service providers may
change – what do you need to know about their plans?

Identifying the mix of what you need
Legislative positioning: Not for all players but for some
there are some key positioning issues
Structural advice: A mix of skills needed for this and a
great example of the collapse of the front/back
office divide
Redoing the documentation: The traditional legal skill,
e.g. conflicts and best execution. A lot of emphasis
on this in MiFID II
Risk and compliance: Changes to practical
procedures and systems and controls needed
