Is a third-country firm (or a third-country subsidiary of an EU firm) dealing on an EU trading venue in commodity derivatives or emission allowances or derivatives thereof in scope of the Ancillary Activity test as per CDR 2021/1833?

CDR 2021/1833 refers only to Article 360 of the CRR, while the ‘simplified approach for calculating regulatory capital requirements’ is contained in CRR Articles 357, 358 and 360. Is the text in CDR 2021/1833 self-contained or should firms refer to the whole of CRR?

This Q&A has been replaced by ESMA Q&A 2952

Should the denominator in the capital employed test under Article 5(4) of CDR 2021/1833 be calculated using consolidated accounts? Should firms use capital on a worldwide basis or just capital employed within the EU?

Can trading venues set specific trading hours which are applicable only to a sub-set of financial instruments (or to a specific financial instrument)?
