Detailed Analysis
Article 62 amends the Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation (MiFIR — Regulation (EU) No 600/2014) to ensure consistency with DORA. MiFIR, together with MiFID II, governs the operation of trading venues and the conduct of investment firms — entities that are heavily dependent on ICT systems for trade execution, market data processing, and reporting.
The amendments remove or modify ICT-related provisions in MiFIR that would otherwise duplicate or conflict with DORA requirements. This is particularly important for algorithmic trading firms and trading venues, where ICT system integrity directly affects market integrity and financial stability.
For investment firms and trading venues, these amendments create clarity about which regulatory framework governs their ICT risk management obligations, eliminating the risk of inconsistent requirements and reducing compliance costs.
