[31 July 2011] Call For Participation: FPL Trade Data Standardisation Group The MiFID review has raised concerns around post-trade transparency. The Market Model Typology (MMT), initiated by FESE with the support of leading data vendors, aims to reduce the level of complexity of equity market data and significantly improve market transparency, by standardising trade flags across trading venues in Europe. As FPL’s membership represents the cross section of firms that will be using the consolidated trading data, the MMT Steering Committee are keen to work with FPL to gain member firm advice on how the new standards should be applied. The MMT Steering Committee will engage with members of the newly formed FPL Trade Data Standardisation Group, if you would be interested in participating please contact the FPL Program Office (fpl@fixprotocol.org) [25 July 2011]
