"Volume weighted average price paid"
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.
Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 regulatory
"in accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014"
A European Union law that sets rules to prevent insider trading and market manipulation by requiring timely public disclosure of confidential company information that could affect share prices, and by governing trades by company insiders and communication rules. It matters to investors because it helps keep markets fair and transparent—like a rulebook and referee for trading—so prices reflect publicly available facts and investors can trust markets are not being rigged by people with secret information.
