Third Country Regime under MiFID II/MiFIR: Market Access, Equivalence and Reverse Solicitation

The MiFID third country regime governs how investment firms from non-EU states may provide financial services within the European single market. Articles 46-47 MiFIR define the EU Commission equivalence framework, while national rules such as the German KWG regulate access through branch establishment. Reverse solicitation remains a relevant exemption but faces increasingly strict scrutiny from ESMA and national competent authorities.

We advise investment firms and credit institutions on all aspects of the MiFID third country regime — from initial regulatory analysis through application processes to ongoing compliance. Our focus is on practical solutions for EU market access.
