ACER’s surveillance activities contribute to causing
deterrence against market abuse at European level. ACER’s efforts in creating
deterrence are reinforced by the community of surveillance experts across Europe.
Specifically, ACER cooperates with surveillance experts from
NRAs, energy exchanges, brokers, and financial authorities, in the effort of
raising awareness about insider trading and market manipulation. This aims to
ultimately contribute to the deterrence of market abuse. In addition, ACER
discusses surveillance topics in Roundtable meetings with ACER’s stakeholders.
For further details on the venues used for ACER’s
cooperation with surveillance experts and discussion of surveillance topics,
consult our section on cooperation.
On a more global level, ACER also collaborates with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Meetings with FERC are organised
on an annual basis in order to discuss and exchange ideas on surveillance
topics affecting both US and EU markets.
