Listing rules are the set of requirements a stock exchange and regulators impose on companies to join and stay on the exchange, covering things like financial reporting, disclosures, governance and minimum size. They matter to investors because those rules create a basic level of transparency and behavior—think of them as marketplace rules that make it easier to compare sellers, reduce surprises, and protect liquidity and value; breaking the rules can lead to fines, trading suspensions or delisting.
