Eu Prospectus Law

Pierre Schammo provides a detailed analysis of EU prospectus law (and the 2010 amendments to the Prospectus Directive) and assesses the new rules governing the European Securities and Markets Authority, including the case law on the delegation of powers to regulatory agencies. In a departure from previous work on securities regulation, the focus is on EU decision-making in the securities field. He examines the EU's approach to prospectus disclosure enforcement and its implementation at Member State level and breaks new ground on regulatory competition in the securities field by providing a 'law-in-context' analysis of the negotiations of the Prospectus Directive.

This new work provides integrated analysis of and guidance on the Prospectus Regulation 2017, civil liability for a misleading prospectus, and securities litigation in a European context. The prospectus rules are one of the cornerstones of the EU Capital Markets Union and analysis of this aspect of harmonisation, the areas not covered by the rules, and the impact of Brexit, provides valuable reference for all advising and researching this field. The first section serves as an introduction to the volume with relevant context. Part two discusses the subjects of Prospectus Regulation from both a legal and economic perspective. Each chapter within part two focuses on a key subject of the new Prospectus Regulation, providing an in-depth analysis of each issue. Part III of the work explains the domestic law on liability for a misleading prospectus, this issue being omitted from the Regulation. The law and practice in each of the key capital markets centres in Europe is analysed and compared, with the UK chapter covering the issues and possible solutions under Brexit. In the chapter on securities litigation there is full consideration of conflicts of laws issues with reference to the Brussels I regulation, and the Rome I and II Regulations. The fifth and final section looks to the future of disclosure practices in connection with securities offerings in the EU. The editors evaluate their key findings in a succinct summary to inform and enlighten the reader.

This new edition provides a comprehensive analysis of the regulation and operation of the securities market in Europe, with coverage at regional and national level including analysis of implementation in 12 member states.
