Key Terms
share buy-back programme, EU Market Abuse Regulation, Norwegian Securities Trading Act, foreign private issuer
4 terms
EU Market Abuse Regulation regulatory
"obliged to make public pursuant to the EU Market Abuse Regulation"
A set of EU-wide rules that prevent cheating in financial markets by banning insider trading, market manipulation, and misleading disclosure; it also requires timely public release of key company information so everyone can play on a level field. For investors, it reduces the risk that prices are driven by secret deals or false signals, making markets fairer and more reliable for deciding when to buy or sell — like referees enforcing fair play in a game.
Norwegian Securities Trading Act regulatory
"disclosure requirements pursuant to Section 5-12 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act"
The Norwegian Securities Trading Act is the national law that sets the rules for buying, selling and offering financial instruments in Norway, including requirements for fair disclosure, market conduct and investor protection. For investors it matters because it helps ensure companies and intermediaries provide accurate information and prevents abusive trading, much like traffic laws make driving safer and predictable so people can trust the market and make informed decisions.
foreign private issuer regulatory
"REPORT OF FOREIGN PRIVATE ISSUER PURSUANT TO RULE 13a-16"
A foreign private issuer is a company organized outside the United States that meets tests showing it is primarily foreign-controlled and therefore qualifies for a different set of U.S. reporting rules. For investors, that means the company files less frequent or differently formatted disclosures with U.S. regulators and may follow home-country accounting and governance practices, so buying its stock is like dining at a well-reviewed restaurant that follows its home kitchen’s rules instead of the local menu — you get access but should check what standards apply.
