On November 27, 2019 the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) published its 25th Primary Market Bulletin (PMB 25). PMB 25 consults on a best practice note (Note) for government departments, industry regulators and public bodies only, on identifying, controlling and disclosing inside information in line with the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR).
The Note recognises that only certain provisions of MAR (dealing with insider dealing, market manipulation and the unlawful disclosure of insider dealing) apply to industry regulators, government departments and public bodies, as well as their staff. The Note aims to assist these entities by providing suggestions on how to manage the risk of handling inside information incorrectly.
Matters addressed in the Note include:
In addition, PMB 25 gives a reminder of firms’ obligations around ‘cold-shouldering’, including the provisions of 4.3 of MAR.
Comments on the Note are requested by January 15, 2020.
