"Volume weighted average price paid per share (pence) 112.4910"
The volume weighted average price (VWAP) is a way to measure the average price of a security, such as a stock, over a specific period, taking into account how many units were traded at each price. It’s similar to calculating the average cost of items bought when some are more frequently purchased than others. Investors use VWAP to assess whether a security is being bought or sold at a fair price during trading.
Market Abuse Regulation regulatory
"In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (the Market Abuse Regulation)"
Market abuse regulation consists of laws and rules designed to prevent dishonest or manipulative practices in financial markets. It aims to ensure fair and transparent trading, so investors can trust that markets operate honestly, much like rules that keep a game fair. By reducing unfair advantages, it helps protect investor confidence and promotes healthy, efficient markets.
