Market Abuse and Whistleblowing
Integrated and efficient markets require the existence of sound and stable market structures. The smooth functioning of the markets can boost public confidence and create economic growth.
Market abuse harms the idea of integrated markets and undermines people’s confidence in the financial system. It is essentially the product of insider dealing and market manipulation.
In order to remove the existing barriers and avoid the problems created by the divergence in local legislations a new Regulation was considered more appropriate. The Rule was established in April 2014, Rule (EU) 596/2014. This rule is namely called MAR (Market Abuse Regulation) and includes all the provisions for this area. Two years later in 2016 the Government introduced Law 102 (I) 2016, that covers some additional aspects.
