AI Summary of Article 341 Net positions in equity instruments
The institution is mandated to calculate its overall gross position by separately tallying all net long and net short positions, as stipulated in Article 327. The total of the absolute values of these positions will yield the institution's gross position.
Furthermore, for each market, the institution must compute the difference between its net long and net short positions, summing the absolute values of these differences to establish its overall net position. The European Banking Authority (EBA) is tasked with developing draft regulatory technical standards to clarify the definition of 'market' in this context and will submit these standards to the Commission by 31 January 2014.
