MAR one year on: time for listed companies to reflect?

A year after the new EU Market Abuse Regulation took effect, companies still face uncertainties on to how to comply with their obligations.

Earlier this month, we presented at a Linklaters workshop aimed at reviewing MAR one year after implementation. The seminar looked at how the market is dealing with the main challenges of MAR and suggested actions listed companies can take to ensure they continue to follow best practice.
