Question
Submission Date: 03 February 2023
Which identification code should be provided by trading venues, investment firms and approved publication arrangements (APA) in the reporting fields for the purpose of the post-trade transparency obligations under RTS 1 and RTS 2 in the context of DLT instruments?
ESMA Answer
Answer Date: 03-02-2023
For the purpose of post-trade transparency reports, in order to identify equity or equity-like instruments (including DLT instruments), as per Table 3 of Annex I of RTS 1, and non-equity instruments (including DLT instruments) as per Table 2 of Annex II of RTS 2, trading venues, investment firms and APAs are required to populate the “instrument identification code field” with the ISIN code. Nevertheless, in order to provide for more granular instrument information on DLT instruments, ESMA recommends that trading venues, investment firms and APAs complement the identification code provided by including the Digital Token Identifier (DTI) when publishing post-trade information. The DTI would be reported as an optional additional field. [DLT Transparency Q&A 1]
