ΠΕΡΙΓΡΑΦΗ
Best execution is the achievement to provide clients with the best possible outcome for their transactions. Investment Firms need to take all necessary and sufficient steps to obtain the best possible result for the execution of the client orders, having due regard to the wider market in any relevant instrument.
Best Execution as part of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive Recast (MiFID II) aims to strengthen investor protection by making markets more efficient and transparent. To this end new requirements were introduced such as to take a ‘total consideration’ approach to best execution and a requirement for Investment Firms to publish disclosures regarding their trading flows.
“When establishing its execution policy in accordance with Article 27(4) of Directive 2014/65/EU, an investment firm should determine the relative importance of the factors mentioned in Article 27(1) of that Directive, or at least establish the process by which it determines the relative importance of these factors, so that it can deliver the best possible result to its clients.” – Recital 99 – DR 2017/565
The execution process must be reflected in an execution policy, which must specify the execution venues and execution factors that the Company will consider. Moreover, the process or the principles used to determine the best execution must be disclosed in a transparent way to enable customers to understand how their orders will be executed. Finally, where derivatives are concerned, the execution policy must address and distinguish between Exchange Traded products and Over-The-Counter (OTC) products and take into account a number of considerations that are applicable to the derivatives markets.
