Investment Firms
The Omnibus Directive requires ESMA to establish a list of all investment firms in the European Union. The list is to contain information on the services or activities for which the investment firm is authorised and will be updated on a regular basis.
ESMA is currently working on the IT solution to establish this list on its website. The list will centralise all the relevant information in this regard received from all national competent authorities.
As a temporary solution, the list below contains the hyperlinks to the webpages of the EU countries and their national competent authorities giving access to the national registers of authorised investment firms. Investors should note that for some competent authorities the information is only available in the national language.
