Natixis to opt in as Systematic Internaliser under MiFID II

Natixis CIB announces it has voluntarily registered as Systematic Internaliser on Equities, ETF, Bonds, Convertibles, Natixis EMTN and FX derivatives in-scope instruments, ahead of the scheduled deadline of September 1, 2018.

In order to better serve our clients and alleviate their reporting obligations, Natixis has decided to become Systematic Internaliser under the new MiFID II regulation.

This will allow our institutional clients to rely on Natixis for real-time post-trade reporting of TOTV (Traded On Trading Venues) products.

Luc François, Head of Global Markets, says: "We are constantly looking at improving services provided to our clients and becoming Systematic Internaliser on a broad range of assets is part of this global effort. Our

European institutional clients will effectively be able to trade with Natixis without additional post-trade reporting requirements."
