The regulation prohibits proprietary trading activities for credit institutions and investment firms, defining them as transactions executed with the intention of short-term resale or profit from market price differences. It establishes specific exemptions for investment portfolio management, liquidity management, market-making, and hedging activities, provided they meet strict governance, risk management, and reporting requirements. Entities must demonstrate that exempted transactions are not conducted by trading desks and maintain hierarchical separation from proprietary trading units to prevent excessive risk-taking.
