Question

When an held asset is negotiated on a regulated market (RM) or on a multilateral trading facility (MTF) , as defined by Directive 2004/39/EC, but is valuated by the undertaking using a evaluated or contributed price source which is not a RM/MTF, should the undertaking use for the two first positions of the CIC code :- the country code of the RM or MTF, despite this source is not used for asset valuation?- XL, according to the price source, and despite the asset is actually listed in a RM or MTF? Also, would it be considered acceptable to derive CIC country code from issuer's country code?

Answer

If the asset is listed in more than one country, the country shall be the one of the most liquid regulated market. This definition is no longer linked to the references used for the valuation. In this case the country code of the RM or MTF should be used.
