  • Annotated Presentation of Regulated Markets and National Provisions
    15.7.2011 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 209/21 Annotated presentation of regulated markets and national provisions implementing relevant requirements of MiFID (Directive 2004/39/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council) (2011/C 209/13) Article 47 of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (Directive 2004/39/EC, OJ L 145, 30.4.2004) authorises each Member State to confer the status of ‘regulated market’ on those markets constituted on its territory and which comply with its regulations. Article 4, paragraph 1, point 14 of Directive 2004/39/EC defines a ‘regulated market’ as a multilateral system operated and/or managed by a market operator, which brings together or facilitates the bringing together of multiple third-party buying and selling interests in financial instruments — in the system and in accordance with its non-discretionary rules — in a way that results in a contract, in respect of the financial instruments admitted to trading under its rules and/or systems, and which is authorised and functions regularly and in accordance with the provisions of Title III of Directive 2004/39/EC. Article 47 of Directive 2004/39/EC requires that each Member State maintains an updated list of regulated markets authorised by it. This information should be communicated to other Member States and the European Commission. Under the same article (Article 47 of Directive 2004/39/EC), the Commission is required to publish a list of regulated markets, notified to it, on a yearly basis in the Official Journal of the European Union. The present list has been compiled pursuant to this requirement.

This topic is of particular interest because non-regulated entities are likely to have played an important part in increasing the efficiency of the EU ETS by reducing trading transaction costs and providing other services. Due to various reasons (new rules and regulations, reduced return prospects, VAT fraud investigations) banks have reduced their engagement in EU Emissions Trading and it is unclear how this will impact on the functioning of the carbon market. Our regression analysis based on data from the EU Transaction Log shows that large companies and companies with extensive trading experience are more likely to interact with the financial sector, which is why we expect banks’ pulling out of the EU ETS to affect larger companies more significantly.

  • Effects of Carbon Pricing on EU Equity Markets
    Stockholm School of Economics Master Thesis in Finance Effects of Carbon Pricing on EU Equity Markets Andrii Shekhirev* 2011.06.20 The current work examines whether the price changes of European Union Allowance (EUA) contracts for emitting carbon dioxide affect the price dynamics of the European equity markets. The author uses the Vector Autoregressive (VAR) and Vector Error Correction (VECM) models in four specifications to investigate the linkages between the EUA market and major stock indexes of 27 EU countries which are participating in the second phase of the European Emissions Trading System. The regression models, together with Granger causality testing, suggest that stock markets of several developed European countries exhibit significant negative responses to EUA price shocks. In particular, CAC 40 (France), DAX 30 (Germany), AEX (the Netherlands), and FTSE MIB (Italy) indexes have been found to react to the EUA market movements. This may serve as a hint for the growing importance of the price of carbon as an additional risk factor for businesses given that emission quotas are being consistently tightened every year.

  • Evidence from Phase II of the European Emission Trading Scheme by Wilfried Rickels, Dennis Görlich, Gerrit Oberst, Sonja Peterson
    Carbon Price Dynamics – Evidence from Phase II of the European Emission Trading Scheme by Wilfried Rickels, Dennis Görlich, Gerrit Oberst, Sonja Peterson No. 1804| November 2012 Kiel Institute for the World Economy, Hindenburgufer 66, 24105 Kiel, Germany Kiel Working Paper No. 1804 | November 2012 Explaining European Emission Allowance Price Dynamics: Evidence from Phase II Wilfried Rickels, Dennis Görlich, Gerrit Oberst, Sonja Peterson In this paper we empirically investigate potential determinants of allowance (EUA) price dynamics in the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) during Phase II. In contrast to previous papers, we analyze a significantly longer time series, place particular emphasis on the importance of price variable selection, and include an extensive data of renewable energy feed-in in Europe. We show (i) that results are extremely sensitive to choosing different price series of potential determinants, such as coal and gas prices, (ii) that EUA price dynamics are only marginally influenced by renewable energy provision in Europe, and iii) that EUA prices currently do not reflect marginal abatement costs across Europe. We conclude that the expectation of a more mature allowance market in Phase II cannot be confirmed.

  • 11 Carbon Markets, 2011-2012
    UNECE/FAO Forest Products Annual Market Review, 2011-2012 _________________________________________________________ 117 11 Carbon markets, 2011-2012 Lead author, Jukka Tissari Contributing author, Jaana Korhonen Highlights The volume of carbon traded in the global markets grew by 17% to 10.2 billion tonnes of CO2e in 2011, with its value increasing to $175.6 billion – a 10% increase from 2010. The first Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) credits entered voluntary carbon markets in February 2011. Development of a market-based REDD mechanism continued in April 2012 when the first REDD credits were issued in Brazil as temporary Certified Emission Reductions (CERs). Despite the overall growth, carbon trade has been slow to take off, having suffered from the prolonged financial and economic crises in Europe, political obstacles in the US, slow progress in the negotiation process of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and the absence of full operational details for REDD+. The EU Emissions Trading System grew by 11% to $147.9 billion in 2011, and represents 78% of world trade. Although the volume of the voluntary carbon market (VCM) dropped by 28% to 95 million tonnes of CO2e, the value increased by 33% to $576 million. Since June 2011, 11 new afforestation/reforestation projects with a total area of 26,350 ha were approved under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) to offset 300,100 tonnes of CO2e. REDD+ negotiations focused on: Safeguards; Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV); Reference Emission Levels (REL); and financing. Several countries are preparing to launch their national emission trading schemes with full market mechanisms by 2015 (e.g.

  • Listing Fees for the NYSE Euronext's European Markets Comprise
    Listing fees for the NYSE Euronext’s European markets comprise admission fees paid by issuers to list securities on the cash market, annual fees paid by companies whose financial instruments are listed on the cash market, and corporate activity and other fees, consisting primarily of fees charged by Euronext Paris and Euronext Lisbon for centralizing shares in IPOs and tender offers. Revenues from annual listing fees relate to the number of shares outstanding and the market capitalization of the listed company. In general, Euronext Paris, Euronext Amsterdam, Euronext Brussels and Euronext Lisbon have adopted a common set of listing fees. Under the harmonized fee book, domestic issuers (i.e., those from France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Portugal) pay admission fees to list their securities based on the market capitalization of the respective issuer. Subsequent listings of securities receive a 50% discount on admission fees. Non-domestic companies listing in connection with raising capital are charged admission and annual fees on a similar basis, although they are charged lower maximum admission fees and annual fees. Euronext Paris and Euronext Lisbon also charge centralization fees for collecting and allocating retail investor orders in IPOs and tender offers. The revenue the NYSE Euronext derives from listing fees is primarily dependent on the number and size of new company listings as well as the level of other corporate-related activity of existing listed issuers. The number and size of new company listings and other corporate-related activity in any period depend primarily on factors outside of the NYSE Euronext’s control, including general economic conditions in Europe and the United States (in particular, stock market conditions) and the success of competing stock exchanges in attracting and retaining listed companies.

  • Working Papers in Responsible Banking & Finance
    Liquidity and Market Working efficiency: European Papers in Evidence from the World’s Largest Carbon Exchange Responsible Banking & By Gbenga Ibikunle, Andros Gregoriou, Andreas G. F. Finance Hoepner and Mark Rhodes Abstract: We apply Chordia et al.’s (2008) conception of short-horizon return predictability as inverse indicator of market efficiency to the analysis of instruments on the world’s largest carbon exchange, ICE’s ECX. We find strong relationship between liquidity and market efficiency such that when spreads narrow, return predictability diminishes. This is more pronounced for the highest WP Nº 12-004 trading carbon futures and during periods of low liquidity. Since the start of trading in the Kyoto commitment period th of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU-ETS) prices 4 Quarter 2012 continuously moved nearer to unity with random walk benchmarks, and this improves from year to year. Overall, our findings suggest trading quality in the EU-ETS has improved markedly and matures over the 2008-2011 compliance years. These findings are significant for global climate change policy.
