The EU Listing Act and its main impacts on Equity and Debt Issuers

Background
In April 2024, the European Parliament adopted a package of proposals known as the “EU Listing Act” which is designed to simplify EU listing rules, make public capital markets in the EU more attractive for companies and facilitate access to capital, particularly for SMEs. The EU Listing Act includes a proposed Regulation to amend the EU Prospectus Regulation as well as other legislations. 

Overall, the DCM related changes under the EU Listing Act represent targeted refinements to the existing regime with some useful new provisions for debt issuers. 

Objectives and key take aways
As training centre of one of the leading European financial Infrastructures, at Academy we have designed this half day refresher webinar, to highlight the most relevant elements and focus areas of the new Regulation. 

The course will provide delegates with an opportunity to learn what are the changes and impact on the IPO process for SMEs, as well as on the ongoing obligations for equity and debt issuers. 

Faculty
The programme will be delivered by two Academy trainers, with a profound experience in Capital Markets’ legislation and its practical implications on the life of a listed company.
