Welcome to AFME Voices, the podcast where we explore the latest regulatory and capital markets developments impacting wholesale capital markets.
In this special live recording of AFME Voices from AFME’s OPTIC Conference 2026, AFME Chief Executive Adam Farkas sits down with Jenny Robertson from the European Commission for a discussion on the Market Integration and Supervisory Package (MISP) and its implications for Europe’s post-trade markets.
They explore the package from a post-trade perspective, including how its different elements interact across trading, clearing, settlement and DLT, and consider how the proposal may evolve as it moves through the EU legislative process.
The conversation also looks at proposals around CCP interoperability, CSD fee transparency and DLT settlement schemes, before considering the bigger picture: whether the MISP represents one step in a wider process of post-trade harmonisation and modernisation, and what further action may be needed.
Adam and Jenny conclude by discussing the respective roles of regulation and industry-led initiatives in advancing market integration and competition, including the lessons that can be drawn from Europe’s move to T+1 settlement.
