Market Abuse Enforcement

Market abuse is a strong cluster because the same control evidence matters across markets: surveillance scenarios, restricted lists, wall-crossing records, inside information decisions, personal account dealing and communications monitoring.

Core Articles

Evidence Focus

  • Insider dealing, unlawful disclosure, manipulation and issuer disclosure controls.
  • Trade and communications surveillance, escalation and alert closure quality.
  • Information barriers, wall-crossing logs and personal account dealing exceptions.
  • Cross-border comparison across FCA, SEC, AMF, SEBI, SFC and SESC enforcement.

Board Questions

  • Do surveillance models reflect current products, venues, messaging channels and trading behaviour?
  • Which restricted-list, watch-list or wall-crossing exceptions reached senior committees?
  • Can issuer disclosure decisions be reconstructed from evidence rather than recollection?
  • Where do personal account dealing and outside-business-interest controls show repeat exceptions?
