The list of warrants and securitized derivatives is determined through a formal admission-to-trading process. To have a security included, an authorized issuer (typically a financial institution) must submit a request to BME. The determination process involves:
Regulatory Approval: Issuers must have a Base Prospectus and the specific Final Terms for each issue approved by and registered with the CNMV (the Spanish National Securities Market Commission).
Compliance with Market Rules: BME verifies that the securities meet the technical and transparency requirements established in the Exchange’s Rulebook.
Liquidity Commitment: For a warrant to be listed, the issuer must appoint a Specialist (Market Maker) who ensures continuous liquidity by providing bid and ask prices throughout the trading session.
Ongoing Maintenance: The list is dynamic; securities are added as new tranches are issued and removed upon their expiration date or if they reach a "knock-out" level (in the case of Turbo products).
