ACER backs NRA enforcement of REMIT and demands better surveillance from traders.

Ongoing regulatory scrutiny, new transparency tools, and a continued focus on improving surveillance and reporting standards.

Energi Danmark A/S has agreed to pay a fine of DKr 380,000 for violating a ban on market manipulation under REMIT.

The Spanish energy regulator found that the companies had manipulated the market by giving false or misleading statements aka “quote stuffing”.

The next set of REMIT obligations include the monitoring and reporting of suspicious transactions or order reports.
