(2)Since the adoption of Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1073, a number of additional DCMs established in the USA have obtained authorisation from the CFTC to trade in derivatives. In light of the information received from the CFTC, those additional DCMs comply with the legally binding requirements that are equivalent to the requirements for Union regulated markets laid down in Title III of Directive 2014/65/EU 3 . In addition, some DCMs referred to in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1073 have vacated their authorisation or amended their names. The Annex of the Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1073 should therefore be amended accordingly.
