PwC Poland report: New tailwinds for issuers. Key changes introduced by the Listing Act

Link to the publication

In October 2024, the EU Council adopted the EU Listing Act, which entered into force on December 4, 2024. The Listing Act is a pivotal step towards making the EU capital markets more attractive and approachable for issuers.

It introduces, among others, significant amendments to the EU Prospectus Regulation and Market Abuse Regulation (MAR), aiming to simplify and streamline the prospectus requirements for public offers of securities as well as ongoing reporting obligations. 

Key highlights include:

• Dual Threshold System
• Prospectus Preparation Exemptions for Secondary Offerings:
• New Prospectus Types
• Standardization and Simplification
• Market Abuse Regulation Amendments

I invite you to read the detailed report, which contains valuable information on the changes, their interpretation, and the obligations and opportunities that await public companies and those planning to debut on the stock exchange.

Best regards,

PwC Team
