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.
