FEES Schedule 6, 6.4: the Recognised Non-AIFC Member trading value fee is ambiguous for members on several platforms
The trading value fee applies to members "whose trading value is over 25 million USD per quarter on each trading platform". For a member above the threshold on one platform and below it on another, the text can mean that no fee is due (not over the threshold on each platform) or that a fee is due per platform; the base ("0.001% of trading value") does not say whether it is per platform or in total.
Proposed correction
Please state whether the USD 25 million quarterly threshold applies per platform or across platforms, and specify the trading-value base of the variable fee.
