Where agricultural commodity derivatives which are based on the same underlying and which have the same characteristics are traded in significant volumes on trading platforms or where critical or significant commodity derivatives which are based on the same underlying and which have the same characteristics are traded on trading platforms in more than one Member State of the European Union or party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, one of which falls under the jurisdiction of the Autorité des marchés financiers, the single position limit to be applied to all trading in these derivatives is set by the competent authority of the trading venue with the largest volume of trading, known as the central competent authority.
Where the Autorité des marchés financiers is the central competent authority, it shall consult the competent authorities of the other trading venues on which such agricultural commodity derivatives are traded in significant volumes or on which such critical or significant commodity derivatives are traded, on the single position limit to be applied, including its review.
In the event of disagreement with a competent authority regarding the single position limit set, the Autorité des marchés financiers shall set out in detail in writing the reasons why it considers that the requirements referred to in I and II of Article L. 420-11 have not been met. The AMF may refer the disagreement to the European Securities and Markets Authority in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 19 of Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010.
