ESMA Q&As clarify prospectus and transparency rules in case of no-deal Brexit
January 31, 2019--The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has issued today three Questions and Answers (Q&As) regarding the Prospectus Directive (PD ) and the Transparency Directive (TD ).
The Q&As clarify the application of certain provisions in these Directives in case the UK withdraws from the European Union (EU) on 29 March 2019 with no withdrawal agreement in place (no-deal Brexit). These Q&As will only apply in case of a no-deal Brexit.
The Q&As provide the following clarifications in the event of a no-deal Brexit:
When issuers of equity securities and non-equity securities below 1,000 EUR who currently have the UK as their PD home Member State choose a new home Member State, they should choose between the EU27 Member States / EEA EFTA States in which they have activities after 29 March 2019 (either offers/admissions made after the withdrawal or admissions made before the withdrawal which continue after the withdrawal).
