Market abuse is defined as behaviour (action or inaction) anywhere in the world, directly or indirectly affecting investments traded on financial markets. Market abuse is a statutory offence that covers stock market manipulation and insider dealing. It is a severe offence that damages investor confidence and the integrity of financial markets.
Market Abuse is a complex topic and firms are required to implement policies, procedures and processes to ensure that these requirements act as an effective deterrent against financial crime.
