COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) 2018/1628

of 30 October 2018

fixing for 2019 the fishing opportunities for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks applicable in the Baltic Sea and amending Regulation (EU) 2018/120 as regards certain fishing opportunities in other waters

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 43(3) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

| (1) | Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1) requires that conservation measures be adopted taking into account available scientific, technical and economic advice, including, where relevant, reports drawn up by the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries and other advisory bodies, as well as in the light of any advice received from Advisory Councils established for the relevant geographical areas or fields of competence and joint recommendations made by Member States. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1) requires that conservation measures be adopted taking into account available scientific, technical and economic advice, including, where relevant, reports drawn up by the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries and other advisory bodies, as well as in the light of any advice received from Advisory Councils established for the relevant geographical areas or fields of competence and joint recommendations made by Member States.

| (2) | It is incumbent upon the Council to adopt measures on the fixing and allocation of fishing opportunities, including certain conditions functionally linked thereto, as appropriate. Fishing opportunities should be allocated to Member States in such a way as to ensure the relative stability of fishing activities of each Member State for each stock or fishery and having due regard to the objectives of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) set out in Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013. |
| --- | --- |

It is incumbent upon the Council to adopt measures on the fixing and allocation of fishing opportunities, including certain conditions functionally linked thereto, as appropriate. Fishing opportunities should be allocated to Member States in such a way as to ensure the relative stability of fishing activities of each Member State for each stock or fishery and having due regard to the objectives of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) set out in Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013.

| (3) | Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 provides that the objective of the CFP is to achieve the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) exploitation rate by 2015 where possible and, on a progressive, incremental basis, at the latest by 2020 for all stocks. |

Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 provides that the objective of the CFP is to achieve the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) exploitation rate by 2015 where possible and, on a progressive, incremental basis, at the latest by 2020 for all stocks.

| (4) | The total allowable catches (TACs) should therefore be established, in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013, on the basis of the available scientific advice, taking into account biological and socioeconomic aspects whilst ensuring fair treatment between fishing sectors, as well as having regard to the opinions expressed during the consultation with stakeholders. |

The total allowable catches (TACs) should therefore be established, in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013, on the basis of the available scientific advice, taking into account biological and socioeconomic aspects whilst ensuring fair treatment between fishing sectors, as well as having regard to the opinions expressed during the consultation with stakeholders.

| (5) | Regulation (EU) 2016/1139 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) establishes a multiannual plan for the stocks of cod, herring and sprat in the Baltic Sea and for the fisheries exploiting those stocks (‘the plan’). The plan aims to ensure that exploitation of living marine biological resources restores and maintains populations of harvested species above levels which can produce the MSY. To that end, the target fishing mortality for the stocks concerned, expressed in ranges, is to be achieved as soon as possible and, on a progressive, incremental basis, by 2020. It is appropriate that the catch limits applicable in 2019 for the cod, herring and sprat stocks in the Baltic Sea are established in line with the objectives of the plan. |

| (6) | The International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) has indicated the biomass of Western Baltic herring in ICES subdivisions 20-24 to be below the conservation reference points of the spawning stock biomass as set out in Annex II, column A, to Regulation (EU) 2016/1139. In accordance with Article 5(2) of that Regulation, all appropriate remedial measures should be adopted to ensure a rapid return of the stock concerned to a level capable of producing MSY. To that end, it is necessary to take into account the timeline for the achievement of the objectives of the CFP in general and of the plan in particular in view of the expected effect of the remedial measures adopted, whilst at the same time adhering to the objectives of achieving economic, social and employment benefits as set out in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013. Accordingly, and in line with Article 4(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1139, it is appropriate that fishing opportunities for Western Baltic herring are set below the fishing mortality range in Annex I, column A, of that Regulation, as such a level takes into account the decrease in the biomass. |

| (7) | As regards the Western Baltic Sea cod stock, scientific advice indicates that recreational fisheries contribute significantly to the overall fishing mortality of that stock and should be limited. It is therefore appropriate to set a daily bag limit per fisherman. This is without prejudice to the principle of relative stability applicable to commercial fishing activities. |

It is therefore appropriate to set a daily bag limit per fisherman. This is without prejudice to the principle of relative stability applicable to commercial fishing activities.

| (8) | As regards the Eastern Baltic cod stock, ICES has not yet been able to establish biological reference points, following changes in the biology of the stock. It is therefore appropriate, in order to contribute to the achievement of the objectives of the plan, to fix the TAC for Eastern Baltic cod in accordance with the precautionary approach as established in Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 and to set a closure period. |

In order to guarantee full use of coastal fishing opportunities, it is appropriate to introduce a limited inter-area flexibility for salmon from ICES subdivisions 22-31 to ICES subdivision 32 for the Member State that has requested that flexibility.

| (10) | According to ICES advice, 29 % of catches in the salmon fishery is misreported, in particular as sea trout catches. As most of the sea trout in the Baltic Sea is exploited in coastal areas, it is appropriate to prohibit fishing for sea trout beyond four nautical miles and to limit by-catches of sea trout to 3 % of the combined catch of sea trout and salmon in order to contribute to preventing misreporting of salmon catches as sea trout catches. |

| (11) | The use of the fishing opportunities set out in this Regulation is subject to Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 (3), and in particular to Articles 33 and 34 thereof concerning the recording of catches and fishing effort, and to the transmission of data on the exhaustion of fishing opportunities to the Commission. This Regulation should therefore specify the codes relating to landings of stocks subject to this Regulation that are to be used by Member States when sending data to the Commission. |

The use of the fishing opportunities set out in this Regulation is subject to Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 (3), and in particular to Articles 33 and 34 thereof concerning the recording of catches and fishing effort, and to the transmission of data on the exhaustion of fishing opportunities to the Commission. This Regulation should therefore specify the codes relating to landings of stocks subject to this Regulation that are to be used by Member States when sending data to the Commission.

| (12) | Council Regulation (EC) No 847/96 (4) introduced additional conditions for year-to-year management of TACs including, under Articles 3 and 4, flexibility provisions for precautionary and analytical TACs. Under Article 2 of that Regulation, when fixing the TACs, the Council is to decide to which stocks Articles 3 or 4 shall not apply, in particular on the basis of the biological status of the stocks. More recently, the year-to-year flexibility mechanism was introduced by Article 15(9) of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 for all stocks that are subject to the landing obligation. Therefore, in order to avoid excessive flexibility that would undermine the principle of rational and responsible exploitation of living marine biological resources, hinder the achievement of the objectives of the CFP and cause the biological status of the stocks to deteriorate, it should be established that Articles 3 and 4 of Regulation (EC) No 847/96 apply to analytical TACs only where the year-to-year flexibility provided for in Article 15(9) of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 is not used. |

| (13) | Based on new scientific advice, a preliminary TAC for Norway pout in ICES division 3a and Union waters of ICES division 2a and ICES subarea 4 should be established for the period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019. |

Based on new scientific advice, a preliminary TAC for Norway pout in ICES division 3a and Union waters of ICES division 2a and ICES subarea 4 should be established for the period from 1 November 2018 to 31 October 2019.

| (14) | In previous years the TACs for anchovy in ICES subareas 9 and 10 and Union waters of CECAF division 34.1.1 have been fixed for a calendar year. In July 2018 ICES issued its advice for the period from 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2019 for that stock. Those periods should be aligned in order to match the TAC period with the period covered by the ICES advice. Exceptionally and only due to the transition, the TAC for anchovy should be amended to cover the period of 18 months, ending on 30 June 2019. |

| (15) | In order to avoid the interruption of fishing activities and to ensure the livelihoods of Union fishermen, this Regulation should apply from 1 January 2019. However, this Regulation should apply to anchovy in ICES subareas 9 and 10 and Union waters of CECAF division 34.1.1 from 1 January 2018. Such retroactive application is without prejudice to the principles of legal certainty and protection of legitimate expectations as the fishing opportunities for that longer period exceed those initially fixed under Council Regulation (EU) 2018/120 (5). Furthermore, this Regulation should apply to Norway pout in ICES division 3a and Union waters of ICES division 2a and ICES subarea 4 from 1 November 2018 until 31 October 2019. For reasons of urgency, this Regulation should enter into force immediately after its publication, |

The assessed diseases consist of 39 diseases that are currently listed in Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2016/429, as well as another 19 diseases of special relevance for disease prevention, control or trade measures, such as enzootic bovine leukosis, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis or infection with Aujeszky's disease virus, and certain other diseases which have been listed by the OIE, such as surra (Trypanosoma evansi) or contagious caprine pleuropneumonia.

| (5) | For the purposes of the assessments, 29 scientific opinions were requested from EFSA on different animal diseases. In providing them, EFSA followed the method set out in its Scientific Opinion adopted on 5 April 2017 on ad hoc method for the assessment on listing and categorisation of animal diseases within the framework of the Animal Health Law (2). For the remaining diseases, the assessments were based on recent EFSA opinions or on information provided by the EU Animal Health Reference Laboratories. As regards all assessed diseases, the relevant OIE standards were considered. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

For the purposes of the assessments, 29 scientific opinions were requested from EFSA on different animal diseases. In providing them, EFSA followed the method set out in its Scientific Opinion adopted on 5 April 2017 on ad hoc method for the assessment on listing and categorisation of animal diseases within the framework of the Animal Health Law (2). For the remaining diseases, the assessments were based on recent EFSA opinions or on information provided by the EU Animal Health Reference Laboratories. As regards all assessed diseases, the relevant OIE standards were considered.

| (6) | The results of the scientific assessments by EFSA were inconclusive for certain diseases such as surra (Trypanosoma evansi) (3), enzootic bovine leukosis (4), Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (5), infestation with Varroa spp. (Varroosis) (6) and Koi herpes virus disease (7). Taking into account the discussions held at the meetings of the expert group on animal health (8), those five diseases fulfil the requirements laid down in Article 5(3) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429. Therefore those diseases should be included in the list set out in Annex II to that Regulation. |

| (13) | In its opinion on bovine milk basic whey protein isolate, the Authority considered that the data from the 90-day oral toxicity study in rats served as a basis to establish a reference point and to assess whether the margin of exposure in relation to the proposed maximum intake of the novel food by humans is sufficient. Therefore, it is considered that the conclusions on the safety of bovine milk basic whey protein isolate could not have been reached without the data from the report of this study. |

As a consequence, the placing on the market within the Union of the novel food authorised by this Regulation should be restricted to the Applicant for a period of five years.

| (17) | However, restricting the authorisation of this novel food and of the reference to the 90-day oral toxicity study in rats contained in the Applicant's file for the sole use of the Applicant does not prevent other applicants from applying for an authorisation to place on the market the same novel food provided that their application is based on legally obtained information supporting the authorisation under this Regulation. |

| (14) | Following receipt of the Authority's opinion, the Commission requested the Applicant to further clarify the justification provided with regard to their proprietary claim over the study reports, and to clarify their claim to an exclusive right of reference to those studies, as referred to in points (a) and (b) of Article 26(2) of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. The Applicant also declared to hold proprietary and exclusive rights of reference to the studies under national law at the time the application was submitted, and that therefore third parties could not lawfully access or use those studies. The Commission has assessed all the information provided by the Applicant and considers that the Applicant has sufficiently substantiated the fulfilment of the requirements laid down in Article 26(2) of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2018/1634

of 30 October 2018

renewing the derogation from Council Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 as regards the minimum distance from coast and the minimum sea depth for boat seines fishing for transparent goby (Aphia minuta) in certain territorial waters of Italy

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 of 21 December 2006 concerning management measures for the sustainable exploitation of fishery resources in the Mediterranean Sea, amending Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1626/94 (1), and in particular Article 13(5) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Article 13(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 prohibits the use of towed gears within 3 nautical miles of the coast or within the 50 m isobaths where that depth is reached at a shorter distance from the coast. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

On 23 May 2018, the Commission received from Italy a request to extend the derogation which expired on 31 March 2018. Italy provided up-to-date information justifying the extension of the derogation.

| (6) | Italy adopted the management plan by Decree (5) in accordance with Article 19(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006. The management plan adopted is put in place to accompany the entire duration of the derogation. |
| --- | --- |

(6)

Italy adopted the management plan by Decree (5) in accordance with Article 19(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006. The management plan adopted is put in place to accompany the entire duration of the derogation.

| (7) | The Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF) assessed the derogation requested by Italy and the related updated management plan in July 2018 (6). The overall assessment by the STECF is positive, information on its biology and ecology, fleet and effort are well presented. STECF stated that the objectives proposed by the management plan are consistent with the objectives of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 (7) of the European Parliament and of the Council and with the relevant provisions of Article 6. The presence of other species in the catches is quite occasional. The boat-seine for transparent goby can be considered as selective gear while for species from the Annex III of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 the impact of this boat seine on these species can be considered as very low. STECF stated that the management plan contains a lot of elements for the monitoring and management of the fishing activities. STECF highlighted the need for some clarifications on gears interaction on seabed, monitoring and scientific data. Italy was requested to examine these issues. In order to address the issue of improved scientific data, the Italian authorities agreed to update the management plan and re-enforce the compulsory reporting obligations with the commitment to provide preliminary scientific report at the end of the 2019-2020 fishing season. |

The extension of the derogation requested by Italy complies with the conditions laid down in Article 13(5) and (9) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006.

(9)

There are specific geographical constraints given both the limited size of the continental shelf and the spatial distribution of the target species, which is exclusively limited to certain zones in the coastal areas at depths smaller than 50 m. Hence, the fishing grounds are limited.

| (10) | STECF expressed some concerns on the lack of updated data on spatial distribution of fishing operations in relation to the distribution of the seagrass habitats. However, it should be noted that with respect to the impact on the seabed, the observations carried out on board during the fishing seasons have shown that the boat-seine operates effectively only on the clean seabed, made of sand or mud while fishing is prohibited over Posidonia beds. Account taken of the above, it is concluded that boat seines fishing has no significant impact on protected habitats and is very selective, since the seines are hauled in the water column and do not touch the seabed because collection of material from the seabed would damage the target species and make the selection of the fished species virtually impossible due to their very small size. |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2018/1635

of 30 October 2018

amending the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU concerning animal health control measures relating to African swine fever in certain Member States

(notified under document C(2018) 7333)

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Directive 89/662/EEC of 11 December 1989 concerning veterinary checks in intra-Community trade with a view to the completion of the internal market (1), and in particular Article 9(4) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 90/425/EEC of 26 June 1990 concerning veterinary and zootechnical checks applicable in intra-Community trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal market (2), and in particular Article 10(4) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 2002/99/EC of 16 December 2002 laying down the animal health rules governing the production, processing, distribution and introduction of products of animal origin for human consumption (3), and in particular Article 4(3) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Commission Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU (4) lays down animal health control measures in relation to African swine fever in certain Member States, where there have been confirmed cases of that disease in domestic or feral pigs (the Member States concerned). The Annex to that Implementing Decision demarcates and lists certain areas of the Member States concerned in Parts I to IV thereof, differentiated by the level of risk based on the epidemiological situation as regards that disease. The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU has been amended several times to take account of changes in the epidemiological situation in the Union as regards African swine fever that need to be reflected in that Annex. The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU was last amended by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1576 (5), following recent instances of African swine fever in Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Romania. |
| --- | --- |

Commission Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU (4) lays down animal health control measures in relation to African swine fever in certain Member States, where there have been confirmed cases of that disease in domestic or feral pigs (the Member States concerned). The Annex to that Implementing Decision demarcates and lists certain areas of the Member States concerned in Parts I to IV thereof, differentiated by the level of risk based on the epidemiological situation as regards that disease. The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU has been amended several times to take account of changes in the epidemiological situation in the Union as regards African swine fever that need to be reflected in that Annex. The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU was last amended by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1576 (5), following recent instances of African swine fever in Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Romania.

| (2) | The risk of the spread of African swine fever in wildlife is linked to the natural slow spread of that disease among feral pig populations, and also the risks linked to human activity, as demonstrated by the recent epidemiological evolution of that disease in the Union, and as documented by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in the Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Animal Health and Welfare, published on 14 July 2015; in the Scientific Report of EFSA on Epidemiological analyses on African swine fever in the Baltic countries and Poland, published on 23 March 2017; and in the Scientific Report of EFSA on Epidemiological analyses of African swine fever in the Baltic States and Poland, published on 8 November 2017 (6). |

| (3) | Since the date of adoption of Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1576, the epidemiological situation in the Union has evolved as regards African swine fever, and there have been further instances of that disease that need to be reflected in the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. |

Since the date of adoption of Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1576, the epidemiological situation in the Union has evolved as regards African swine fever, and there have been further instances of that disease that need to be reflected in the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU.

| (4) | In October 2018, one case of African swine fever in a feral pig was observed in the province of Silistra in Bulgaria. This case of African swine fever in a feral pig constitutes an increased level of risk which should be reflected in the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. Accordingly, this area of Bulgaria affected by African swine fever should be listed in Part II of that Annex. |

This case of African swine fever in a feral pig constitutes an increased level of risk which should be reflected in the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. Accordingly, this area of Bulgaria affected by African swine fever should be listed in Part II of that Annex.

| (5) | In October 2018, an outbreak of African swine fever in domestic pigs was observed in the county of Maramureș in Romania. This outbreak of African swine fever in domestic pigs constitutes an increased level of risk which should be reflected in the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. Accordingly, this area of Romania affected by African swine fever should now be listed in Part III of that Annex instead of in Part I thereof. Given that Part III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU lists the areas where the situation is still evolving and dynamic, when any areas are listed in that Part, particular consideration must always be given to the effect on the surrounding areas. |

| (6) | In order to take account of recent developments in the epidemiological evolution of African swine fever in the Union, and in order to combat the risks associated with the spread of that disease in a proactive manner, new high-risk areas of a sufficient size should be demarcated for Bulgaria and Romania and duly listed in Parts I, II and III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU should therefore be amended accordingly. |

EUROPEAN SECURITIES AND MARKETS AUTHORITY DECISION (EU) 2018/1636

of 23 October 2018

renewing and amending the temporary restriction in Decision (EU) 2018/796 on the marketing, distribution or sale of contracts for differences to retail clients

THE EUROPEAN SECURITIES AND MARKETS AUTHORITY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Securities and Markets Authority), amending Decision No 716/2009/EC and repealing Commission Decision 2009/77/EC (1), and in particular Articles 9(5), 43(2) and 44(1) thereof,

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 (2), and in particular Article 40 thereof,

Having regard to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/567 of 18 May 2016 supplementing Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to definitions, transparency, portfolio compression and supervisory measures on product intervention and positions (3), and in particular Article 19 thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | By its Decision (EU) 2018/796 (4), the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) restricted the marketing, distribution or sale of contracts for differences (CFDs) to retail clients with effect from 1 August 2018 for a period of three months. |

(1)

By its Decision (EU) 2018/796 (4), the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) restricted the marketing, distribution or sale of contracts for differences (CFDs) to retail clients with effect from 1 August 2018 for a period of three months.

| (2) | In accordance with Article 40(6) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014, ESMA must review a temporary product intervention measure at appropriate intervals and at least every three months. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

In accordance with Article 40(6) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014, ESMA must review a temporary product intervention measure at appropriate intervals and at least every three months.

| (3) | ESMA's review of the restriction on CFDs has been informed by, inter alia, a survey among national competent authorities (5) (NCAs) on the practical application and impact of the product intervention measure as well as additional information provided by NCAs and stakeholders. |

ESMA's review of the restriction on CFDs has been informed by, inter alia, a survey among national competent authorities (5) (NCAs) on the practical application and impact of the product intervention measure as well as additional information provided by NCAs and stakeholders.

(4)

NCAs detected only limited examples of non-compliance with the ESMA product intervention measure, which mainly related to the risk warnings.

| (5) | NCAs reported an overall decrease in the number of CFD retail client accounts, trading volume and total retail client equity over the month of August 2018 in comparison with August 2017. The share of profitable retail client accounts decreased slightly, but this appears to be mainly arising from the soaring prices of cryptocurrencies in August 2017 (6). Comparing client outcomes over time is not only impacted by the product intervention measures, but also for example by market conditions. Market conditions in August 2017 were bullish in comparison to August 2018. Furthermore, the population of retail clients changed (7). Finally, NCAs reported a decrease in the number of automatic close-outs and the occurrences that accounts went into negative equity (8). |

| (6) | NCAs also reported an increase in the number of clients treated as professional clients on request over the month of August 2018 in comparison with August 2017. ESMA is aware that some CFD providers are advertising to retail clients the possibility of becoming professional clients on request. However, a retail client may request to be treated as a professional client when, in particular, the client submits a request in writing in accordance with all the requirements set out in the applicable legislation. Providers should ensure that they comply at all times with those requirements (9). ESMA is also aware that some third-country firms are actively approaching Union clients or that some CFD providers in the Union are marketing the possibility for retail clients to move their accounts to an intra-group third-country entity. However, without authorisation or registration in the Union, third-country firms are only allowed to offer services to clients established or situated in the Union at the client's own exclusive initiative. Finally, ESMA is aware that firms are starting to provide other speculative investment products. ESMA will continue to monitor the offer of these other products to determine whether any other Union measures are appropriate. |

| (7) | During the review period, ESMA did not obtain evidence contradicting its overall finding of a significant investor protection concern identified in Decision (EU) 2018/796. ESMA has therefore concluded that the significant investor protection concern identified in Decision (EU) 2018/796 would persist if its decision to restrict the marketing, distribution or sale of CFDs to retail clients is not renewed. |

| (8) | Since the adoption of that Decision, the applicable existing regulatory requirements under Union law have not changed and continue not to address the threat identified by ESMA. Furthermore, NCAs have not taken action to address the threat or the actions taken do not adequately address the threat. In particular, since the adoption of the Decision, no NCA has adopted its own national product intervention measure under Article 42 of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 (10). |

| (9) | The renewal of the restriction set out in Decision (EU) 2018/796 does not have a detrimental effect on the efficiency of financial markets or on investors that is disproportionate to the benefits of the action and does not create a risk of regulatory arbitrage for the same reasons set out in that Decision. |

(9)

The renewal of the restriction set out in Decision (EU) 2018/796 does not have a detrimental effect on the efficiency of financial markets or on investors that is disproportionate to the benefits of the action and does not create a risk of regulatory arbitrage for the same reasons set out in that Decision.

| (10) | If the temporary restriction is not renewed, ESMA considers it is likely that CFDs will again be offered without adequate measures to sufficiently protect retail clients against the risks related to those products that gave rise to the consumer detriment identified in Decision (EU) 2018/796. |

(10)

If the temporary restriction is not renewed, ESMA considers it is likely that CFDs will again be offered without adequate measures to sufficiently protect retail clients against the risks related to those products that gave rise to the consumer detriment identified in Decision (EU) 2018/796.

| (11) | In view of these reasons, taken together with the reasons set out in Decision (EU) 2018/796, ESMA has decided to renew the restriction for a further three-month period to address the significant investor protection concern. |

(11)

In view of these reasons, taken together with the reasons set out in Decision (EU) 2018/796, ESMA has decided to renew the restriction for a further three-month period to address the significant investor protection concern.

| (12) | In renewing the restriction, ESMA has carefully considered any new relevant information that has emerged during the review period. In this respect, ESMA obtained information that, in certain cases, CFD providers experience technical difficulties in using the abbreviated risk warning due to the character limits imposed by third party marketing providers for communications other than through a durable medium or a webpage. Therefore, a reduced character risk warning should be introduced in this renewal. |

Therefore, a reduced character risk warning should be introduced in this renewal.

| (13) | The reduced character risk warning is not intended to replace the abbreviated risk warning. The new warning is envisaged to be used only for cases where the third party relied on by a CFD provider to market the product imposes a character limit that is not compatible with the number of characters comprising the risk warnings. |

The reduced character risk warning is not intended to replace the abbreviated risk warning. The new warning is envisaged to be used only for cases where the third party relied on by a CFD provider to market the product imposes a character limit that is not compatible with the number of characters comprising the risk warnings.

| (14) | The reduced character risk warning provides retail clients with information on the percentage of CFD retail accounts losing money. However, in order to fully draw clients' attention to whether they can afford the high risk of losing their money when investing in CFDs, this renewal requires that any communication containing the reduced character risk warning also includes a direct link to a webpage of the CFD provider where the warning required for durable media or webpages is shown. |

| (15) | As the proposed measures may, to a limited extent, relate to agricultural commodities derivatives, ESMA has consulted the public bodies competent for the oversight, administration and regulation of physical agricultural markets under Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 (11). None of those bodies has raised any objections to the proposed renewal of the measures. |

(5)  23 NCAs have responded: Financial Services and Markets Authority (BE – FSMA), Czech National Bank (CZ – CNB), Finanstilsynet (DK-Finanstilsynet), Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (DE – BaFin), Central Bank of Ireland (IE – CBI), Ελληνική Επιτροπή Κεφαλαιαγοράς (EL-HCMC), Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (ES – CNMV), Autorité des Marchés Financiers (FR – AMF), Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa (IT – Consob), Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CY-CySEC), Finanšu un kapitāla tirgus komisija (LV — FKTK), Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (LU – CSSF), Magyar Nemzeti Bank (HU – MNB), Malta Financial Services Authority (MT – MFSA), Autoriteit Financiële Markten (NL-AFM), Financial Market Authority (AT – FMA), Komisja Nadzoru Finansowego (PL — KNF), Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários (PT – CMVM), Romanian Financial Supervisory Authority (RO – FSA), Agencija za trg vrednostnih papirjev (SI — ATVP), Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority (FI – FSA), Financial Conduct Authority (UK- FCA), Fjármálaeftirlitið (IS — FME).

(8)  In August 2018, the negative balance protection was in force. However, market gapping can lead to the client initially being closed out at a price that creates negative equity, with the account then re-credited back to zero equity by the provider to meet the new requirement of negative balance protection. This was also the case for those providers that offered negative balance protection in August 2017.

See also Section 11 of ESMA's Questions and Answers on MiFID II and MiFIR investor protection and intermediaries topics (ESMA35-43-349), where ESMA has identified forms of practices that investment firms should not use when applying the legal requirements on the categorisation of clients as professionals on request.
