(5)Trades where several different bonds, or other financial instruments, are simultaneously sold to a single client, including counterparties, as a portfolio trade against a single price for the entire lot, are not recognisable as such in the public reports. Without accurate identification of such portfolio trades the public reports display several individual transactions against a price that does not reflect the market price. Therefore, it is necessary to add in Table 3 of Annex II to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/587 a flag for portfolio trades identifying such transactions.
