It ’ s hard to believe that it ’ s been a whole year since we brought you the last edition of The TRADETech Daily but here we are again in Paris for one of the most pivotal events in the industry ’ s calendar . TradeTech Europe plays a central role in gathering colleagues , clients , peers and friends from across the industry for lively discussion of the topics most shaping the markets , all the while creating opportunities to make new connections and reminisce with old ones . We ’ re delighted to be back once again as the official media partner of the event . The last 12 months have certainly kept us busy at The TRADE and if the first quarter of this year is anything to go by , then 2023 isn ’ t likely to offer any respite . As the official newspaper for the conference , The TRADETech Daily gives you a sneak peek at the central discussions taking place on stage at this year ’ s event . As we enter the much-anticipated Trilogue process in Europe , this edition brings you an in-depth cover feature exploring the current state of play of Mifid II regulation in both the UK and Europe – a topic central to several of the panels this year . It wouldn ’ t be The TRADETech Daily without a string of exclusive buy-side interviews and this year ’ s edition is no exception , featuring insights from Comgest , BNP Paribas Asset Management , Barings , Fidelity International , T . Rowe Price and Jupiter Asset Management . You can also find the full event agenda at the back of this issue so you don ’ t miss any of the key discussions taking place over the next few days .
