Classification

Service
Equities (88%)

The update addresses prospectus regulation changes governing public offerings and admissions to trading on regulated markets, which directly concerns the issuance and trading of securities (both equities and fixed income instruments).

Investment Services (82%)

Mandatory inheritance: Equities as the primary tag requires Investment Services as the secondary tag, and the prospectus framework applies broadly to securities offerings including equity share issuance and trading.

Specialism
Regulatory Reporting (15%)

This update concerns prospectus regulation and securities market listing requirements, which fall outside the payments compliance taxonomy and do not involve payment service providers, payment systems, or payment-specific regulatory obligations.

Supervision (10%)

While the statement addresses implementation guidance, it is directed at securities issuers and competent authorities in capital markets, not payment firms or payment-related regulatory reporting obligations.

TITLE: European Securities and Markets Authority Issues Statement on Prospectus Regulation Implementation Changes BODY: The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) issued a statement addressing the implementation of certain changes to the Prospectus Regulation introduced by the Listing Act. The statement, referenced as ESMA32-753890202-3066, provides guidance on how these regulatory modifications will be implemented across European securities markets. The Listing Act introduced amendments to the Prospectus Regulation framework, which governs the requirements for public offerings and admissions to trading on regulated markets within the European Union. ESMA's statement clarifies the practical application of these changes to ensure consistent implementation by competent authorities and market participants across member states. The statement addresses key areas affected by the Listing Act amendments, providing guidance to facilitate compliance and promote regulatory harmonisation. This includes clarification on procedural matters, technical requirements, and transitional provisions relevant to issuers, investment firms, and competent authorities responsible for prospectus approval and oversight. Market participants, including issuers preparing prospectuses and competent authorities responsible for prospectus review and approval, should review this statement to understand the implementation requirements. The guidance is designed to ensure a smooth transition to the new regulatory framework and promote consistent application of the amended Prospectus Regulation across all member states. ESMA's statement serves as a key reference document for all stakeholders involved in prospectus-related activities and should be considered alongside the Listing Act amendments when preparing for compliance. **Reference:** ESMA32-753890202-3066: Statement on the implementation of certain changes to the Prospectus Regulation introduced by the Listing Act
