Market Abuse Regulation

• 25 Minutes
• For all staff
• UK

This 25-minute refresher revisits the Market Abuse Regulation, which prohibits insider dealing, unlawful disclosure of inside information and market manipulation, with heavy fines and long prison sentences among the penalties. It helps staff stay aware of the laws affecting market abuse, identify a qualifying market and which actors fall within scope, and distinguish between the different types of abusive behaviour.

Annual refreshers exist because the rules are technical and the exposure is personal. Staff who completed in-depth training two years ago will have lost the detail that matters, particularly around what counts as inside information in their own work. A short, focused refresher keeps the standard current across the population without repeating a full course, and it keeps your training records defensible.
