The Market Abuse Regulations aim to increase market integrity and investor protection, thereby enhancing the attractiveness of securities markets for capital raising. Our course covers the rules and guidance of the Market Abuse regime, as well the policies and procedures that should be in place, in relation to insider dealing, improper disclosure, manipulating transactions, manipulating devices, misleading behaviour and market distortion.

Also covered is how to identify the intent behind market rumours, and how the rules affect you if you are approached as a market sounding contact point.
