For the purpose of determining the classes of financial instruments considered not to have a liquid market as per Article 6a the following methodology shall apply:
Exchange Traded Commodities (ETCs) – RTS2#3 = ETCS: a debt instrument issued against a direct investment by the issuer in commodities or commodities derivative contracts.

All ETCs are considered not to have a liquid market
Exchange Traded Notes (ETNs) – RTS2#3 = ETNS: a debt instrument issued against a direct investment by the issuer in the underlying or underlying derivative contracts. The price of an ETN is directly or indirectly linked to the performance of the underlying. An ETN passively tracks the performance of the underlying to which it refers.
All ETNs are considered not to have a liquid market

Section 12 ‘Emission allowances’ is replaced by the following:
‘12. Emission allowances

Emission allowances – classes not having a liquid market
Asset class – Emission allowances
For the purpose of determining the sub-asset classes not having a liquid market as per Article 6a the following methodology shall apply:
Sub-asset class
Liquidity determination
European Union Allowances (EUA) any unit recognised for compliance with the requirements of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 5 ) (Emissions Trading Scheme) which represents the right to emit the equivalent to 1 tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO 2 e)
RTS2#3 = EMAL and RTS23#37 = EUAE
European Union Allowances (EUA) are considered to have a liquid market
Any other emission allowances
RTS2#3 = EMAL and RTS23#37 <> EUAE
Any other emission allowances are considered not to have a liquid market
