United Kingdom

FCA publishes Primary Market Bulletin 65. Issued 28 August, the newsletter flags three structural points for listed issuers: renewed concern that Regulatory Information Services are being used for frequent low-value or marketing-adjacent updates rather than genuine inside information under UK MAR; findings from the FCA's review of sponsors' use of specialist due diligence on admissions to the Equity Shares (Commercial Companies) category; and continued scrutiny of outlier delayed-disclosure notifications under UK MAR Article 17(4). No new consultation or rule change — guidance only. Primary Market Bulletin 65
