Articles 7(4) and 7(5) of MiFID II require ESMA to develop technical standards in relation to:i.ii.iii.the procedures for granting and refusing requests for the authorisation of investment firms;the information to be provided to the home state competent authorities; andconsultation prior to authorisation.Article 7(4), MiFID IIESMA shall develop draft regulatory technical standards to specify:(a) the information to be provided to the competent authorities under Article 7(2) including the programmeof operations;(b) the requirements applicable to the management of investment firms under Article 9(6) and theinformation for the notifications under Article 9(5);(c) the requirements applicable to shareholders and members with qualifying holdings, as well asobstacles which may prevent effective exercise of the supervisory functions of the competent authority,under Article 10(1) and (2).ESMA shall submit those draft regulatory technical standards to the Commission by […].Article 7(5), MiFID IIESMA shall develop draft implementing technical standards to determine standard forms, templates andprocedures for the notification or provision of information provided for in Article 7(2) and in Article9(5).ESMA shall submit those draft regulatory technical standards to the Commission by […].2. ESMA considers that the CESR work on the MiFID passport (which includes recommendations 8 , aConsultation Paper 9 and a feedback statement 10 ) is useful reference material in this area, especiallyregarding the harmonisation of procedures and the enhancement of cooperation between NCAs.3. In addition, with regard to the documentation to be provided by the investment firm at application,ESMA considers that useful reference can be made to the following work:8CESR/07-337b.9CESR/06-669.10CESR/07-318.15
