Its aim is to standardize practices across the EU and restore confidence in the industry, especially after the 2008 financial crisis.

  * MiFID II, a European Union packet of financial industry reform legislation, rolled out on Jan. 3, 2018.1
  * MiFID II covers virtually every asset and profession within the EU financial services industry.
  * MiFID II regulates off-exchange and OTC trading, essentially pushing it onto official exchanges.
  * Increasing transparency of costs and improving record-keeping of transactions are among MiFID II's key regulations.
