Key Terms

market abuse regulation 596/2014 regulatory

"made in accordance with the requirements of the EU and UK version of the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014"

Regulation 596/2014, known as the Market Abuse Regulation, is the European rulebook that bans insider trading and market manipulation and requires timely public disclosure of crucial company information. It matters to investors because it helps keep prices fair and trustworthy—like rules that stop players from cheating in a game—by forcing companies and insiders to be transparent and making unlawful trading easier to detect and punish.

legal entity identifier code regulatory

"Legal Entity Identifier code | 25490052LLF3XH6G9847"

A legal entity identifier code (LEI) is a unique, standardized 20-character code that works like a passport number for companies and other organizations, letting anyone unambiguously identify who is behind a financial transaction or filing. Investors care because it improves transparency and reduces fraud or confusion—making it easier to track ownership, confirm counterparties, and comply with reporting rules, much like a clear ID speeds up background checks.

isin financial

"Identification Code | ISIN: NL0015002MS2"

A 12-character International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) is a unique code that acts like a passport for a specific stock, bond or other tradable security so it can be identified worldwide. Investors and systems use it to ensure they are buying, selling and tracking the exact same instrument across exchanges and data feeds, which prevents costly mix-ups and makes portfolio reporting, settlement and regulatory checks simpler and more reliable.

ordinary shares financial

"Ordinary shares of €3.50 each | ISIN: NL0015002MS2"

Ordinary shares are a type of ownership stake in a company, giving shareholders a right to participate in the company’s profits and decision-making through voting. They are similar to owning a piece of a business, and their value can rise or fall based on the company's performance. Investors buy ordinary shares to potentially earn dividends and benefit from the company's growth over time.
