Regulations seek to ensure market making is more stable
Venues aren't required to give incentives for some assets
September 29, 2015--High-frequency traders just caught a break in Europe, where it's now easier to escape stricter rules for market makers.
European Union regulators on Monday revised proposals for overhauling the 28-nation club's financial markets. For traders, there's a change from their previous plans: You're not considered a market maker--and therefore subject to new obligations--until you're supplying bids and offers for a given stock or financial product for half the trading day. Before, the threshold was only 30 percent of the day.

From Recovery to Reinvigorated Growth in South East Europe
September 28, 2015--STORY HIGHLIGHTS
The latest World Bank South East Europe Regular Economic Report points to a recovery in growth in the six economies of the region-Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, the Former Yugoslav Republic of (FYR) Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia.
While this recovery is welcome, the weak and volatile growth in the region since the global financial crisis has tapered the progress in bringing incomes closer to the ones in the EU.
The introduction of policies and reforms aimed at ensuring that the recent nascent growth becomes more robust and resilient can also help to support the medium-term challenge of reinvigorating the region's pace of income convergence towards higher income status.
