The Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) │ Yasmine Li & Shane Henley

The Market Abuse Regulation (MAR): Technology for Meeting Market Abuse Regulation Challenges In this podcast Yasmine Li and Shane Henley, from Baringa Partners, discuss the EU Market Abuse Regulation (MAR), which came into force in July 2016. The new EU-wide regime, replacing the previous Market Abuse Directive (MAD), is intended to harmonise measures addressing market distortion arising from regulatory arbitrage. The regulation extends its scope to new markets and redefines the terms of market abuse, introducing some significant changes including a transaction surveillance capability. This podcast outlines the key aspects of the regulation and its compliance obligations for energy players in the wholesale markets.
