THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 on markets in financial instruments and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 [OJ L 173, 12.6.2014, p. 84.], and in particular Article 9(5), third subparagraph, Article 11(4), third subparagraph, Article 14(7), third subparagraph, Article 21(5), third subparagraph, and Article 22(3), second subparagraph, thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Taking into consideration the experience acquired with the application of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/583 [Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/583 of 14 July 2016 supplementing Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council on markets in financial instruments with regard to regulatory technical standards on transparency requirements for trading venues and investment firms in respect of bonds, structured finance products, emission allowances and derivatives (OJ L 87, 31.3.2017, p. 229).], the identification of inconsistent application of provisions that rely on whether or not a transaction is 'non-price forming' and taking into account the changes in trading practices due to technological developments and adaptations of behaviour of market participants which allow information to be published with a shorter delay, it is necessary to amend certain provisions of that Delegated Regulation.
